2004 TOC Champion!
Please congratulate AL LIM as the 2004 Tournament of Champions winner! Net 67 at Windsor Golf Course.
Under baleful skies twenty players made the drive to Sonoma County's Windsor GC to play in the Tournament of Champions and vie for a beautiful, mahogany-encased ship's clock; a prize worthy of the OCGC's champion of champions The first tee time was 8:56 AM and the first group set forth armed with hope, four sets of clubs, and four KP flags.
Hole #7's difficult Par 3 yielded no greenies and the $25 gift certificate was raffled off to Terry Owyang. This Par 3 was voted one of the top 18 holes by the pros on the Nike Tour. The three KP winners each won a $25 gift certificate and were: Kenny Fong, Johnny Mui, and Tom Yong.
The tournament chairs, Judy and Al Lim, devised a method to pair up players for two man teams; e.g., the lowest handicap player in the field would pair up with the highest handicapped player; the next lowest handicap player would team up with the second highest player, and so forth. The teams were not announced at the start of play and players found out who their partner was when they turned in their scorecards. Interestingly enough, the combined handicaps were all 28s and 29s w/ the exception of one team with a combined handicap of 27 (Judy Lim and Alex Fong).
Winning teams were: first place- Al Lim and Terry Owyang (138), second place-Gavin Fong and Clem Leung (141), third place-Steve Chong and K.K. Tong (145). Cash prizes for the three teams who placed were $100, $60, and $40 per team, respectively.
The Skins pot yielded four skins with Sam Wong picking up two worth $90. Nick Chin and Gavin Fong each one a skin worth $45.
When all the scores were tallied, Al Lim and Gavin Fong were tied at 67. The OCGC tie breaker (based on the USGA's recommended back 9 score format) was used to award the Tournament of Champions trophy to Al Lim. Gavin will have to think like the Giants and A's; there's always next year!
The sun never came up and wind was not a factor. The course was in excellent condition; and, although relatively short at 5500 yards from the white tees, proved difficult and earned its newly rated slope of 122. As players left for their drive to the Bay Area, the sky grew darker and started to sprinkle while we thought of next month's tournament: the inaugural Daimo Cup at Bennett Valley.
