Hot hot hot! when the Panther Trail Open got under way this past Wednesday, the players found the course to be in great shape despite being in a drought.
The fairways were thick and greens fast. Lindsey Smith and Ron Schroeder tied for first with Lindsey winning the USGA tie-breaker for the trophy.
Both players split 1st and 2nd place money.
Ron shot a 30 on the front nine. "I just ran out of gas Ron said. "I'm trying to get my stamina back after a near fatal car accident, just happy to be able to play golf again."
Lindsey, playing in his first TNT event, said he enjoyed it very much and looking forward to playing again. Both players shot a net 70, 2 under par. Darrell Johntson of Kingwood placed 3rd with a net 71. Thanks to the The Woodlands Staff and Clint Miller for making our event a success.
Our next event is at Wildcat GC in south Houston on July 22nd at 1:00pm. Hope to see you all there.
You couldn't ask for a better day of golf Wednesday, June 3rd at Kingwood Island course. Bob Torgan (1hcp) took advantage of the great weather and posted a net 71. Bob almost didn't enter the tournament because he was going to go on vacation and needed to spend time at home getting ready. For Bob's efforts he won $1074 which includes optional games.
Tommy Van, an 8-handicap from The Woodlands, won the inaugural TNT event with a net 70 at Kingwood CC Lakes Course. Second was Joe Luciano of Kingwood. Van won almost $700 for his efforts.
