Movement of large impediments, windy conditions and a even a hole-in-one. It was a weekend where everything seemed to happen at the Yellowknife Golf Club.
The Yellowknife chapter of the Mediocre Golf Association hosted a doulbeheader of tournaments at the club over the long weekend. First up was the Douche Bag Invitational on Sunday, followed by the FORE! Championship on Monday afternoon. Both tournaments were re-scheduled owing to the evacuation with the FORE! Championship happening on Monday in order to allow the Club Championships to take place late last month.
Darin Black and Jason Langer ended up tied after SundaySA国际影视传媒檚 round with identical scores of 93, but Black ended up winning as Langer had to leave and wasnSA国际影视传媒檛 available for the playoff, said Shaun Morris, the chapterSA国际影视传媒檚 president.
MondaySA国际影视传媒檚 winner was Colton Moran, who carded an 85 to win by four shots over Darrell Koch. It was a complete reversal of fortune for Moran, who finished dead last in terms of the men on Sunday, meaning he received whatSA国际影视传媒檚 called the Key to the Red Tee.
That allowed him to play from the red tees on Monday and Morris said it appeared to help.
SA国际影视传媒淗e played probably the worst round heSA国际影视传媒檚 ever played the day before and then goes out and wins on Monday,SA国际影视传媒� he said.
But the big story from Monday was Cameron OSA国际影视传媒橬eill and his hole-in-one on the 14th. Playing with a pin location back left, OSA国际影视传媒橬eill said he used an 8-iron to ace the 150-yard par-3 and it was his first ever.
And, as is the custom for anyone who hits an ace, OSA国际影视传媒橬eill bought his playing partners a round to celebrate.
ItSA国际影视传媒檚 the second hole-in-one to happen at a MGA event in Yellowknife SA国际影视传媒� Shaleen Woodward was the first to do it in the 2019 Rebel Beach Am-Am when she aced the par-3 11th.
It is also the first time a hole-in-one has happened at the golf club in October, a fact confirmed by Morris.
SA国际影视传媒淭he latest before now was Sept. 20, 2012,SA国际影视传媒� he said.
There is still one more tournament left on the calendar, that being The Last Gasp on Oct. 8. If youSA国际影视传媒檝e been keeping with the way weather works around this time of year, there is always the chance of some snow.
Morris said that would be the icing on the cake for this season.
SA国际影视传媒淚SA国际影视传媒檇 like to see some just to show some of the other chapters that we play in any conditions,SA国际影视传媒� he said.
