Tournament Recap:
Great day for golfing in Southern California! Congrats to all our winners and thanks to all those who were trying to keep up the pace of play. We all know how to keep up with the group in front of us but there are still those who are making a 41/2 hour round into 5 plus. We missed our President Mr Cloud today, but I’m sure he’s enjoying the sun and fun in Hawaii. Thanks from me to Ron Plummer for assisting me with getting our results out accurately and timely. - Bret
