Grand Final Match Troy/Alex defeated Les/Joe 47 pts to 31 pts |
It was a pretty one-sided Grand Final of the Indoor Golf League. Troy and Alex were both playing great golf and their front nine holes were amazing. They were 4 under the card off the stick with 2 birdies and an eagle. This gave them an 11-point lead at the turn and it was a gap that Les and Joe could just not eat into as they played the back nine almost as well, extending their lead to 16 points by the end of the 18 holes. Well done from Les and Joe to post a few 4-point holes on the back nine, but they just ran into a well-oiled machine with Troy and Alex taking the win. That is the finish to the 2nd season of the Indoor League and we are now looking for teams to join in the fun in our 3rd season competition starting on May 10th.

SEMI FINALS Les/Kane defeated Joe/Jamie22 pts to 18 pts Troy/Alex defeated Alec/Gazza 20 pts to 12 pts |
The Semi Finals were played at the same course being currently played on the PGA Tour, Harbour Town. It proved to be pretty difficult, but 3 of the 4 teams broke their handicaps, so perhaps we need to find some harder challenges for this seasoned group of players? Les's team will be going up against Troy & Alex next week for all the glory in the Grand Final. It will be 18 holes around the very fitting Match Play Championship venue of many years on the Tour, The Austin Country Club in Texas. This course is famous for sloping fairways and plenty of water, so teams will have to be at their absolute best. As a Grand Final should be. Good luck to all players. We will be looking for new teams to compete in the next League very soon, so please get your golfing buddies ready to go and drop by the shop in Grant St to register your interest. |
