Saturday, July 26th and Sunday, July 27th

The second major of the 2014 Season was another success! The weather held out for a great two-days…here are the details!

For the second time this season in a major event worth double points, the Championship Flight trophy went to Devon Hayes and his combined score of 151 (76/75)! Devon beat Van Stemple by only one stroke (76/76) and Eric Fryatt came in third with a score of 161 (86/75).

The competition in the A Flight was fierce. In the end, Roger Munoz (from the Tidewater Tour) edged out both Gordan Brixi and John Richards. Although Roger took home the trophy, he let others earn the points. Roger shot 156 (79/77) and beat Gordan’s 157 (79/78) and John’s 156 (82/75). Chad Slimmer was next in line with his 79/81 combination followed by Vivian Cocca’s 83/82.

Thomas Hamilton repeated his major tournament win by taking first place in B Flight after shooting an 84 on the first day and 79 on the second. Justin Wilson earned second place with a total of 168 (82/86). Only one stroke separated the players in third, fourth and fifth place respectively…Harry Sherman (82/88), Steven D’Ambrosio (87/84) and both Anthony Leyson (88/84) and Azim Dhanani (86/86). 

The C Flight winner was “Big Peach” other wise known as Cephas Franklin. Cephas shot an 88 and an 81. Second place went to new member, Ben Farquhar with a combined score of 174 (91/83). Tour directors Tim Newman and Dan Pastorek finished third and fourth respectively when they both shot 178. Another tie followed when Ben Harrison and Thompson Sawyer both carded 180. 

Finally, James Briggs was excited to win the D Flight by three strokes. His 96/87 earned him first place. Second place went to John Moriarty who shot a 94 followed by a 92. Third place winner was Karl Yergey and he finished one stroke ahead of Chuck Lineberry.

Now that the season is winding down, you may want to keep an eye on the points standings page on the website. Keep in mind that qualification for National Championship requires four tournaments on the DC Metro Tour and placing in the top 10 or so within your flight!
