First off, kudos to John Brinkman for shooting a 37/31 and earning Player of the Week honors for the second week in a row. Brinks is the first player to win three POW's this season.
With three weeks to go in the CGA's 12th season, both the Individual and Team races are shaping up. In the Individual race, which pays the top four spots, George Tzagournis (104) leads Jay Feller (103) by one point. A group of three golfers remains in striking distance of Tazz and Feller: Ryan Webb (95.5), Tom Freiburger (95.5) and Joe Barrett (94.5). Below is a list of each of these golfer's remaining schedule. The names in bold indicate critical head-to-head matches.
Tzagournis: Porterfield, Freiburger, Geraghty
Feller: Freiburger, D. May, G. May
Webb: Burkley, Ebel, D. May
Freiburger: Feller, Tzagournis, Burkley
Barrett: Underwood, Diwik, Budzik
The Team race, which pays the top two spots, promises to be just as tight if not tighter than the Individual race. Stellar remains out in front after a convincing 32.5 effort against Here We Go in Week 12. A 34-11 win for Geeez! over Stickit & Lickit put Geeez! in 2nd place and knocked our defending champions down to 5th place. And See You on Mundy grinded out a 24.5-20.5 win over Frys & Shakes to remain in the hunt in 3rd place. Below is a look at these team's remaining schedules. The current top two teams are scheduled to play each other in the final week:
Steller: Frys & Shakes, See You on Mundy, Geeez!
Geeez!: Here We Go, Frys & Shakes, Steller
See You on Mundy: MoJoe Risin', Steller, Stickit & Lickit
One thing is for sure....with the 2nd and 3rd place teams still on their schedule, Steller, and any subs they may employ, truly controls their own destiny.
