If thereSA国际影视传媒檚 a playoff to determine a winner in a golf tournament and no oneSA国际影视传媒檚 around to play in it, does it make a sound?

Not if itSA国际影视传媒檚 the Yellowknife chapter of the Mediocre Golf Association. They simply count strokes to figure it out.

The chapter hosted The MGA at the Yellowknife Golf Club on Monday evening, the third tournament of the 2022 season. ItSA国际影视传媒檚 the chapterSA国际影视传媒檚 version of the Canadian North Midnight Classic and featured 48 golfers looking to win the SA国际影视传媒渂ig chequeSA国际影视传媒� of $1.35, according to Shaun Morris, the chapterSA国际影视传媒檚 leader.

Just like the previous tournament SA国际影视传媒� dubbed The Bastards SA国际影视传媒� the 18 holes of regulation golf saw more than one golfer end up with the same low score. This time, it was James McKay and Chris Flannagan who were deadlocked with identical scores of 88. But unlike The Bastards, where Ryan Sheppard emerged victorious after a two-hole, sudden-death showdown, there was no playoff.

Morris explained why.

SA国际影视传媒淲hen we went to start the playoff, we found out that both James and Chris had left,SA国际影视传媒� he said. SA国际影视传媒淵ou canSA国际影视传媒檛 have a playoff with no one there to play off.SA国际影视传媒�

When that happens, it goes to the scorecards to determine the winner with the countback system used. ThatSA国际影视传媒檚 where the tied playersSA国际影视传媒� scores are put head-to-head by hole. If the score on the first head-to-head hole is tied, it then moves on to the next hole back and so on until someone scored better than the other on the same hole. The 18th was the first tiebreaker and thatSA国际影视传媒檚 where McKay emerged victorious; he bogeyed while Flannagan triple-bogeyed.

SA国际影视传媒淓ven when weSA国际影视传媒檙e breaking ties, weSA国际影视传媒檙e mediocre,SA国际影视传媒� joked Morris.

McKay also ended up with the low gross award. His $1.35 in earnings puts him atop the chapterSA国际影视传媒檚 money list with $1.54, two cents ahead of Kevin Hewitt. Hewitt ended up one shot back in third on 89, and he pocketed 75 cents.

The highest-finishing womenSA国际影视传媒檚 player was Pim Wangyao, and not only was she best of the female contingent, she was the fourth-best player on the night as she shot 90 to claim 68 cents. Her fourth place equals the best result for a womenSA国际影视传媒檚 player in the Yellowknife chapter.

SA国际影视传媒淢eredith Wilson had a fourth-place finish and so did Thip Changthalasy,SA国际影视传媒� said Morris. SA国际影视传媒淚tSA国际影视传媒檚 impressive to see her (Wangyao) have that kind of round.SA国际影视传媒�

Just like the Midnight Classic, the weather was perfect and there was even the added bonus of not a lot of bugs, said Morris.

SA国际影视传媒淭here was a bit of dryness but I didnSA国际影视传媒檛 have to put on the bug dope,SA国际影视传媒� he said. SA国际影视传媒淚t was a beautiful night, great night for golf.SA国际影视传媒�

The chapter is taking a bit of time off until its next event. That will be the F.U. Open, the MGASA国际影视传媒檚 play on the U.S. Open, set for July 17.
