Opening Scramble pairings and important announcements!

Hello Friends, 
 
Many items to go through this week so be sure to read the entire email so you know what is taking place. One thing to note, if you SIgn up to play in a Major, you HAVE TO SHOW UP. Your team and literally everyone in the club is counting on you to be there to run a fair event. People bet on your team, teammates bet on their own team as well. So anyone not showing can torpedo an entire event and cost people money, fun, etc. Let’s not have it happen. If you do get sick, or injured, call TSR Law (Joking). Call the Pro shop as soon as you know you will not be attending so we can find a sub. 
 
Opening Scramble Results –  Here you will see results from last weekends opening Major, the Scramble. It was a chilly and windy day. Tricky conditions to start the season. That turned out to mean bunched up scoring as we had 3 teams Tie for 1st place at 141 and then 2 others came in at 142 to round out the top 5. Congratulations to all the winners of the event but also the other games (Clasen Challenge, Skins, and Proxy events). Lots of money for our first event paid out and all that is in the shop. Remember that shop credit for the actual event is on the Computer system. Skins, Clasen and Proxies are cash payouts and the winning horse race tickets are also cash in the shop. Just ask for your envelopes if you are/were a winner. Thanks to everyone who played. We had a great time in spite of the weather conditions.
 
Sweeps This Weekend – With no Major this weekend, it’s back to the normal Sweeps events Saturday and Sunday. You should have booked your tee times LAST weekend and got your spot and/or groups set if you planned to play. If you do not sign up or get things set up in your time, we will sell those during the week if it is not filled out. This is on YOU to ensure your group/time is set 1 week in advance. Do not complain if your time was sold. You have the ability before anyone else to get it all set 1 week in advance. Stop in or call 651-777-2987.
 
Next Major – Sunday May 19th – (2-2 man Best Ball) – We should have the sign up sheet ready to go in the shop. This is a PICK A PARTNER event and sign up as a twosome. You will then be paired with another two some for your 4 man team. It’s your two man teams NET best ball + your partner 2 man teams NET best ball. This is a great event to also try and qualify for Doubles Challenge golf. So it would be wise to sign up with your planned partner for Doubles during this event and kill 2 birds. You can always try and qualify multiple times, just costs $20 each attempt. Be sure to bring $20 cash for the actual event and then another $20 for your 2 man team if you are trying to qualify for doubles as well that day. Then as many of you saw, bring some cash if you wish to participate in the other wagering options pre-round in the bar. 
 
Doubles qualifying deadline is on May 31st – If you want to try and qualify, plan a round with your doubles partner and at least 1 other club member to play. Pay your $20 prior in the shop and then turn in your card after the round. Singles challenge golf payment needs to be in ($20) by that date as well if you want to play in the singles year long Match-play. *No qualifying necessary for Singles.
 
That is all we have folks. Let us know if you have any questions. Remember that every 18 hole round you play, you need to be posting that round the same day on your GHIN app to keep an accurate handicap. We do spot checks throughout the year. Not posting all your scores IS cheating everyone in the club. 
 
Go WOLVES!!!
