Hot Temperatures and Hotter Golf at Sky Creek Ranch
DFW Tour
August 7, 2011
Sky Creek Ranch GC, Keller, LA
The DFW Tour is coming into the home stretch of the season with
the 9th event completed at Sky Creek Ranch. Mother Nature tried her best to slow everyone
down with temperatures around 105 degrees during play. With the very hot temperatures, we still had
a good turnout and some of the scores were as hot as the air.
Champ Flight
Tour veteran Kevin McIntosh had a two shot lead going to 18 over
long time veteran Cecil Bird; however McIntosh scored a bogie while Bird carded
a birdie. They finished tied after
18. McIntosh put the dagger into Bird on
the first playoff hole carding a birdie to seal the victory. This is McIntosh’s 7th victory
this year in both the Championship and A Flights.
A Flight

in the A Flight. He carded 2 birdies on
