The horse country of Northern Kentucky, with Churchill Downs just down the road, proved an appropriate setting as all the thoroughbreds of professional golf gave great chase for the Wanamaker Trophy at Valhalla Golf Club today. There was also some jockeying for position among the Links Life Golf touts with a great closing rush by the youngsters in our group.
The final standings are:
1. TOP FINISHER: 4 of 5 of the LLG db’s had Rory in their lineup- Lil Skins, Big Skins, Big Dick and G. Rennie all rode the chalk.
2. TOTAL MONEY: those upstarts, Lil Skins and Big Dick, both jumped on Phil and scored the exacta payoff. Lil Skins wins by a nose as Sergio’s T36 beat out Big D’s T70 from Zach Johnson.
3. TOP FINISHING LONG SHOT: the Stewards inquiry is in over the eligibility of Rickie Fowler as an acceptable long shot. How can a guy with three top five finishes in this year’s previous majors be a legit long shot? Pending review, Big Skins gets the unofficial win here.
4. CUMULATIVE SCORE: at 51under par my stable held onto the lead and closed 9 strokes ahead of Big Skins. By the way, this category gets the biggest payout.
This was a memorable major championship season and the best was saved for last.
Can’t wait until April.
