A small group in late August. Reese Evans has once again shows that no course is too difficult. Shoots a gross 77 for a net 68. Wins the front and net birdies. Greg Risoldi shots a solid net 70 and once again was done in on the 15th and 17th holes and comes up 2 strokes short and comes in second.
Number 10 did in Jim Rinaldi where he lost 2 balls (which were both found later on) and John Rutigliano also loses a ball on the same hole which was later found. Jim gets four Greenies and wins GP3. Ed Korleski wins NP3 with 10 and Jim Petronchak although finishing last wins the birdie pot with 3.
August 10, 2024 (Quail Brook - World Series Qualifier #5)
World Series Qualifier #5 is complete. The course was in good shape considering all the rain. Jim Rinaldi shot one over par gross with a 73 and finished first with a net 67. Jim won the Birdie Pot, the Greenie Pot and Gross Par 3's, tied Net Eagles and came in second on the front. He has already qualified for World Series by winning WSQ#1 therefore much to Jim's disappointment the World Series Qualifier doesn't have to finish first and today Jim Petrochak is our WS winner. Jim finishes 2nd with a net 70 and wins WSQ #5. He also tied the back with Dennis Grote and won the Sandy's pot with 2. Dennis Grote made a strong showing today, missed WS by 1 stroke, tied the back and won NP3's.
Today was also the day of the DNF Rich Firzgerald and Billy Bylina had injuries and Charlie Connors had a family issue. In a rare instance Rich did tie for Net Eagles so he reduced his losses.
