Week 4 Recap

Diamond Hill was a challenging little municipal course. While the greens and fairways weren't perfect, we finally had some nice weather and couple of good scores. The course was rated harder than we anticipated, so handicaps were adjusted before we teed off. The Asians vs. Caucasians dropped to straight-up, while Ginger Brown had to give 4 strokes to Ebony & Ivory.

E-Flo/Cong vs. Robb/Ryan
The match started even, with both teams +1 though four holes. But the Asians fired off six pars over the next seven, taking a three stroke lead after 13. Ryan/Robb stumbled on the par-4 14th, recording the only double-bogey of the day, and pretty much sealing their fate. A birdie on #17 gave E-Flo/Cong another two-stroke cushion, and officially ended the match. Final score: E-Flo/Cong win 76-82 (gross).


Justin/Chandler vs. Geoff/Reid
Justin showed up almost as hungover as he was in the finals last season, so the day was looking bleak once the league realized 4 strokes were given (instead of the initial three). Chandler played horribly off the tee (again), and Geoff/Reid were wondering why they even had to show up. Actually, Ebony & Ivory played lights-out, tying the low round with some consistent drives and clutch putting. Their lone birdie on #17 poured salt in the wounds of Ginger Brown, who find themselves in the cellar without any wins. Final score: Geoff/Reid win 72-80 (net).

Next week the entire league has a bye. Everyone except Robb/Ryan return to the course on March 25th.
