First Tim and I would thank you all for your patience sat at Hillcrest GC, we had a screw up on the reservation for the event, which caused the back up. And we apologize for your inconvenience. We were supposed to start around 1230, but the group was signing players up in the morning, and that added to our delay. And then there’s the lack of golf carts, we had to wait till players completed play before we could load up….. Problem is, as you know, its pace of play. Players may start in 8min interverals BUT they don’t come in that way…. We had big gaps in getting carts….anyway you all made it work and for that Tim and I are very grateful. And we compliment ALL of you, for the pace of play, you all made great time…… and we had some great golf too!!!! Here’s how play went by flight:
CHAMP FLIGHT… First time I have seen under par round at any of our events, and that happened with BILLY HILL of Charleston firing a 69 with 5 birdies and an eagle on #13, great playing.
A FLIGHT..Columbia wound up winning 1st and 2nd by the solid play of HIRAN "COACH" HICKS who won with a great score of 76 with 2 birdies on the front. DARRYL AVERYHART also had a great round finishing in 2nd with 79 and 2 birdies on the back. JACE GAUSE finished 3rd also with a 79.
B FLIGHT MASON TALLEY Charleston and JOSE LAGOS Columbia would tie at 85 for the round. With TALLEY winning in a one hole playoff.
C FLIGHT the low score of the day came out the last group…. So the wait was long. GEORGE TYREE of the Charlotte tour came in with an 87 for first topping LES BRADSTREET AND BRAD MORRIS who tied with 90 and BRADSTREET won on playoff on card.
D FLIGHT Columbia came out a winner on this with WES GENTRY shooting and 88 for first, and JOHN WILSON 95 for second and one stroke back KELVIN BRIGGS.
