The first annual Orville Henry Cup played this weekend at Paradise Valley Athletic Club and Fayetteville Country Club went right down to the wire, with the "White" Team defeating the "Red" Team 18 1/2 to 17 1/2. Four-ball matches were played at Paradise Valley on Saturday in cold and chilly weather with a high of 48 degrees - and the 4-ball results were deadlocked at 6-6. Sunday's individual matches were delayed almost an hour by frost, and the White team won 12 1/2 to 11 1/2 to win the Cup.
Special thanks to the staff and membership at both clubs for hosting, and to ASGA Director Rick McCoy for the BBQ Friday night at PVAC - a great evening of food and fellowship to kick off the weekend. Also, thanks to the 48 players that took time away from their families to participate.
While both golf courses were in outstanding condition, I want to offer a special "thank you" to Brandon Nichols, Supt. at Fayetteville CC - the best and fastest bentgrass greens I have played this year....some of the downhillers were "scary fast" - but they were very smooth. Full results of all matches, including photos, will be posted at www.asga.org as soon as possible!
