It was a fascinating finish for Chubba Bubba, your 2013 Team Champions. Brett Southworth and John Brinkman decimated Balds Deep in the final week 37.5-7.5 to overtake RG Fore, who held a 0.75 point lead going into the week. RG Fore posted a 34.5-10.5 victory over Fua Threea.....a valiant effort that proved to be not enough. What is fascinating about Southworth (36/31) and Brinkman (40/35) is that while beating the shit out of Balds Deep they were also battling against each other for the Individual title. Southworth held a 0.5 point lead heading into the week and his 13-2 victory over Doug May was enough to hold off Brinkman and his 12.5-2.5 win over Bret Benack. Southworth is your Week 16 Player of the Week, followed closely by Steve Porterfield who followed-up his CGA Match Play championship with a 37/31 on Monday.
It was another great finish to a great CGA season...a golf league that has seen numerous great finishes to great seasons. It has been a pleasure serving as your Commisioner the past three seasons and I leave the position confident that the state of the league is as strong as ever.
