The weather remained a little chilly but the scoring warmed up led by Brian Mahan's 40. In a rare occurence, all 4 golfers in the Sussman-Celso v. Montecalvo-Braga
match last night had the same handicap -no strokes given. And the match ended in a 10-10 tie! The Blind Squirrel found a nut on the first night -Mal Hornsby's shot to the
temporary green on the 7th landed 8' from the hole earning him a $100. Another search begins next week.
For the second week a row Matt Fitzpatick hit a spectular shot on the 18th to win a tournament. At the team oriented Zurich Classic in New Orleans,
he flew a long bunker shot all the way to the hole that checked up 1 foot from the hole allowing his brother Andy to tap in for the win.
It's been quite a month for the Brit. In addition to the Zurich Classic, in early May he won the Valspar Championship, finished 2nd at the Players and last week
won the RBC Heritage at Hilton Head pocketng just under $10 million dollars.
Nelly Korda was back in top form easily winning the Chevron Champion at Memorial Park GC in Houston by 5 strokes over Ronnie Yin. Her 3rd Major was worth
$1,350,000.
