Tuesday night saw the League Championship Match and the results couldn't have been closer.  Congratulations to Team McEvilly comprised of Chris Hammen, Jimmy Yednock, Dan Stanford, and Tom Mack.  Team Rieves, comprised of Dave Rieves, Mike Brania, Ambuj Shatdal, and Barry Wanner finished in second place.  Congratulations to both teams!

• Ambuj Shatdal (9) 41 - Tom Mack (12) 43 (Tom wins by one)
• Dave Rieves (9) 40 - Jimmy Yednock (7) 38 (tie)

So Team McEvilly wins two matches by one stroke and ties with Team Rieves on the other two matches.  It doesn't get any closer than that!

The championship match was preceded by a scramble for the remaining six teams.  Team Larson won with a score of 30 with 10 putts.  Congratulations to Team Larson.  Team Kraus finished second with a 31 with 11 putts.

The League Championship consists of a play-off between the winner of the 1^stHalf and the winner of the 2^ndHalf.  

Championship Match Tiebreakers

 

1^sttiebreaker:  If the Championship match ends in a net tie, the League Champion shall be the team which won more individual matchups in the Championship.

 

2^ndtiebreaker:  If the two teams are still tied after the first tiebreaker, the League Champion shall be the team which had the lower overall handicap going into the match.

Here are the scramble rules and other information for the six teams not in the championship match.  Please remember to report both your score, any birdies, and the number of putts.

Reminders:

·      Hit your tee shots on hole 8 from the upper tee.

·      You must count at least one tee shot from each member of your group. On your scorecard, note who hit the tee shot you used on each hole.

·      Count your putts on each hole, and note them on the scorecard.

Rules (for those unfamiliar with the scramble format):

1.    Each foursome plays as a team and keeps one score for the team (including putts).

2.    After each golfer tees off, the team picks one shot to play next, and each golfer hits from there. The three people whose shots won't be used should retrieve their balls and drop within a club-length of the ball chosen to be played, but if the ball you are playing is in the rough or a hazard you must play from that rough or hazard. You may improve your lie (winter rules).

3.    Follow this same procedure until your team holes out.

4.  One shot/ball per golfer - if you only have three golfers, only three shots.

5.    When putting, the first person puts a mark down to identify where the others should putt from if the first person misses.

6.    At least one tee shot from each golfer in the foursome must be used on one of the nine holes. You do not need to decide whose tee shot is to be used until after everybody has teed off on a hole, unless you are forced to use a specific golfer’s tee shot on holes 7, 8, or 9 because you have not used one of their tee shots yet.

Tiebreakers

1.    Most holes-in-one

2.    Most eagles

3.    Most birdies

4.    Fewest putts

5.    Higher average team handicap (those without handicaps will not be counted)

6.    If still tied, prize money will be divided proportionally.

Week 16 (September 1, 2020) Results and Standings

Week 16 of the UW Employee Golf League saw a real photo finish for the winner of the second half.  After all the ciphering was done, the winner was Team Rieves by .5 points over Team Raymer and by 1.0 points over Team Kraus.  Now golfers can spend the winter thinking about that putt that didn't fall or that drive you sliced into the trees.  So the championship match is set with Team McEvilly versus Team Rieves next Tuesday.  For the record, Team Rieves finished the second half with 25 points.  Team Raymer finished second with 24.5 points, and Team Kraus finished third with 24 points.

In other news, we had 30 golfers for our eight teams Tuesday, with the average an excellent 44. Three  golfer broke 40, with Scott Larson and Jimmy Yednock shooting 38, while Mark Woodruff (of course) shot 39.  Low net scores were Chris Hammen with a 27, while Rob Zimmerman and Mike Kraus had net 28.

The winners of the Flight Tournament are Jason Raffel in Flight 1 with a 90, Matt Raymer in Flight 2 with an 81, and Mike Sanders in Flight 3 with an 82.  A nice consolation prize for two members of Team Raymer and you can see why they almost came from behind in the second half.  The final Flight Tournament results are on the right.

Oddly we didn't have any birdies reported this week despite the great overall scoring average.

Going into the final week of the second half, four teams are still in it.  Team Kraus cut into Team Rieves lead.  Team Rieves has 23 points.  Team Kraus is in second with 22.5 points.  Team Raymer with 20 points and Team Jokisch with 18.5 points are still in it.  Others would need a number of no shows to have a chance.

Team Rieves continued to be in the lead after the fifth week with 22 points, but the standings bunched up quite a bit.  Team Kraus is still in second with 17.5 points.
