In a Cup of firsts ...Team Glazer won or halved the last 5 matches on Monday, all ending on 18, to complete a miraculous finish to a rainy weekend. With the Cup tied 3-3 going into the final round, Eight of the twelve matches on Monday ended on #17 or 18 with Team Glazer prevailing in 7 of the 12 final single matches to clinch their 4th consecutive Cup victory. Key moments included: - Team Googel rookie Jeff Azia blowing a 2 hole lead to Team Glazer rookie Chris Birks (they halved)
- Glazer Captain Randy Curtis coming back from 1 down with 2 to go to win 1-up (vs Kallin)
- Tony Vergnetti (Googel) missing a 4 foot putt on 18 vs Fink (Glazer) that would have halved the match
- Will Moore (Googel) missing a 4 foot putt on 18 that would have won the match vs yours truly (Glazer). We halved.
- LoveDog (Googel) losing the 18th and the match to Veeters (Glazer), one-up.
- The first time in GC history that the winner of the Greeny-Googel match was not on the winning Googel Cup team (OK, I am not 100% sure on this one, LD can you confirm?)
The REAL highlights were: - a 12 person squiggums game
- Curtis finally making a real impact off the golf course
- Steak without Schuster
- Two rookies winning the BBBP -- that's what happens when Veeters regular partner (who goes nameless) isn't there to carry him
- A light chug
- A chug and two throw backs on the same point
- A game starting before noon
- Googel chugging 10 times for the weekend (not a typo, ask Kallin)
- Mike Franceschelli in the Mike Franceschelli room (even the car wrecks make the highlight reel)
- A new scotch wingman for Jimmy Ho
- A lost club in the stream on 13 (thrown from about 70 yards out, it was a helluva toss)
- A Rosen we can finally embrace
- A fixed ending to our boat race
- Gluten free beer
- a new iPod speaker system
- A major electricity problem overcome by our cracker jack lighting crew
- 40+ hours of radar watching
- Three guys almost getting us banned from the Point Sebgao golf course (you know who you are)
- An almost hole in one on 17
- A mere 8 cans of beer remaining after the smoke cleared (and the rain ended)
