Wow! What a round of golf…….and I am not talking about the PGA Championships where Dustin Johnson grounded his club in a bunker and didn’t get into the play off, which was won by golfs equivalent of Michael Shumacker any way.
I’m talking about the leader on Golf Cash, in line to win the Callaway Prize – which is a visit to the Callaway factory to get fitted out with a new set worth $2500.
Let me ask you a question before I tell you what happened on the weekend. Have you ever won anything at your club for shooting 3 over your handicap? I heard that as a resounding NO!
In one of the weekend pots the best score to come in was a +3. The Golf Cash member won a small $100 but still, where else could you win $100 for shooting +3? But wait….
The exciting part of it was that in order to win the Callaway prize worth $2500, members on Golf Cash have to win pots, as this player did. He beat 5 other golfers who were all playing at different clubs and picked up the $100 as I said, but the player who came second was at +8. Now this means that Mr +3 has won a pot, (a requirement to win the prize) and has the largest win gap to second place (5 shots). It means that if no one else wins a pot by a bigger margin that 5 before the 30th November that a score of 33 Stableford Points or +3 in Stroke terms will win a prize valued at $2500! Now that is exciting!
