-Saturday Morning Scramble will start at 8am - will go back to the usual 9am start just as soon as the heat spell we're in breaks - probably next week (fingers crossed).
-Something very special happened yesterday in the Thursday League: Susan Fee shot a 37 and captured low gross honors for the event. I don't ever recall a woman doing this before in league play at Lakeview. Super stuff, Susan! We'll look for you at the top more often now that the 'glass ceiling' has been broken.
-Btw, Dick Lemmon came in second with a 40 and that included a double bogey on his last hole (#8). The guys who usually populate the top of the leaderboard were shooting 41's and 42's. (My own personal golf goddess, Gigi, served me up some more humble pie with a triple bogey to start - at hole #4 of all places, followed by a bogey and then a double bogey; plus six after three - jeesh! See that Junior Byron bested me in triple bogeys, finding them at both holes one and eight. Ouch.)
-Thanks to Wayne Souerdike for coming out and playing yesterday morning. We all appreciate that. Dave Strange and Wayne Pearl have signed on for the duration of the season to represent teams 10 and 12. That still leaves us needing two subs every Thursday for the open spots in those teams. Wayne Pearl won't be there next week, so we're looking for three warm bodies - with the July Match Play Tournament starting, their help is even more critical.
-More hot today. People are starting to ignore the heat and are coming out to the golf course even in the heat of the day. Probably not good though ok if well hydrated. Personally I'm a little bit past ready for a change. Maybe in a day or two.
-Wonder if Tiger is going to play this weekend? Seems he's struggling a little bit at Greenbriar. Did you see that the girls are going to be on Network TV tomorrow and Sunday? On NBC. That's a big plus for us guys who live off the antenna and don't have access to The Golf Channel where most of the ladies events are being televised this year. They are playing at Blackwolf Run up in Kohler, WI. The US Open championship. Current leaders: Cristie Kerr, Brittany Lincicome and Lizette Salas at three under par. Michelle Wie and Yani Tseng are tied for 38th at plus two.
-Getting on with the day...
