Thursday Match Players - Come on Down!

We get our July Match Play Tournament underway with this morning's play.  Some things to remember:


-Scoring is true match play: one point per hole (no 5 points for low net as in regular season play)
-If tied at end of nine holes, keep playing till winner is determined.
-No double par if match point is undecided - play till ball is in hole.  (For league standings, double par will still be in effect and we will adjust the scorecard in the clubhouse at the end of play.)
-To fill out the brackets for the second week of the tournament, the best of the losing teams (low net score) during week one will advance.
-Tournament runs concurrent with regular season play.

Special scorecards have been made - each match will get two scorecards with one being official, the other a copy.  Be sure and check your scores with the other team at the end of each hole - resolve any differences immediately.  At the end of play, be sure they match before you turn them into the clubhouse.

Tip of the day:  If you watched the US Women's Open this weekend, you saw some beautiful women who had swings (golf) that were smooth and sweet and repeatable.  Suggest you hit off the tee like the winner, Na Yeon Choi, and do some pitching like Sandra Gal - she finished in third place and we saw a lot of her short game - silky smooth.

See a bunch of you in a little bit.
