The long awaited Lucky Seven Series kicked off at Teal Bend on Saturday, April 4. We got great weather for our 35 players who came out to secure an opening spot on the Arcade Creek Series (ACS) leaderboard. Check out “quick links” on the website to see the leaderboard. The game of the day was singles, drop the 3 worst holes. Top 12 players received 3 points, next 12 were given 2 points, and everyone who played was guaranteed 1 point. Additional .1 was awarded for each net birdie.
Our star of the day turned out to be Yolanda Day –our own recently married Yolanda Goff! She was low net at 64. Nice playing! In confirmation that net birdies will matter in tiebreaking – Yolanda was edged out for top of the leaderboard by Ramona Marshall who got one more.
Low gross was a tie between pals, Karen Graser and Pam Katros who both shot 87. Second low net went to Ramona Marshall (68) and third low net was a tie between Betty Galvez, Marian Kubiak, and Karen Graser (71).
In an unfortunate development, I had to update the course information for scoring. While it resulted in some additional birdies across the field, it also dropped me from the top 12 point winners! This was great news for Joanie Lew who secured the final “3 point” spot on the leaderboard.
We already have a battle at the top with a Flight A first place tie between Pam Katros and Karen Graser! They are now the target. In Flight B, Ramona Marshall clings to a .1 lead!
