We are back from Hilton Head and the Golfweek & Senior Tour Championships. 39 members represented the Orlando tour in Hilton Head. Once again, several Orlando members had top finishes across the flights. The Golfweek Tournament was shortened to 36 holes by tropical storm Nestor, even though an attempt was made to play the second round--players got in 8-10 holes--before play was cancelled for the day.
