Men’s Night 7/10 — 1-or-2-Man Scramble on the Front 9
For Men’s Night this week, we’re adding a twist to our scramble format to continue July’s theme of team golf. Competitors may either play solo using the standard 1-Man Scramble format (hitting two shots themselves from each position throughout each hole) or pair up for a traditional 2-Man Scramble (each teammate hits one shot from each position).
1-Man Format: You hit two shots off the tee and choose the best one. From there, you again hit two shots, choose the best, and repeat until the hole is completed.
2-Man Format: Players team up and each teammate hits one shot from every position. Choose the best shot and both players hit from there, continuing until the hole is finished. For 2-Man teams, please mark your scorecard with both players’ names on a single line (e.g. “B. Jones / B. Hogan”) and record your gross scramble score.
Please turn in all completed cards to the Pro Shop with gross scramble scores and names clearly marked. Net scores will be calculated using 50% of each player’s Front 9 course handicap, with 50% of the average handicap used for 2-man teams. Low net score wins!

RWB Results
Over the course of 36 holes, we saw birdies, eagles and lots of great scores from the full spectrum of RWB tee boxes. In the end, two very deserving champions emerged on Sunday afternoon. In the Net Division, Matt Dove closed out the tournament in style with a stellar gross 75 to finish at -11 net. In the Gross Division, Joe Lapan started the final round on Sunday with an eagle and ended the day with an under-par 71 tally to finish at +2 for the tournament. Well played to Matt and Joe!
Handicap Posting + Tournament Charges & Credit Book
We ask that all players post their own tournament scores to GHIN as “Competition” scores with WHITE TEES as the selected tee box. (Gold Tee RGW players should post as GOLD TEES.) All postings will be double checked this week and corrected if necessary by the club.
All cart fees from Saturday & Sunday and our $30 tournament entry fee + credit book distributions will be added next week when our MGA master accountant Pete is back in the shop!
