Jul 29, 2010

Thursday, July 29, 5:45 p.m. --- Just got home from Carstairs,,,lucky I wasn't going SOUTH on the QEII because it was a parking lot north of Ponoka due to road paving. Cam Hill and Mandy Wong of Country Hills each shot personal best scores today to win the Junior Boys and Junior Girls' divisions of the Carstairs Jr. Open. Hill shot in the 60s for the first time with a last-hole birdie 69, and Wong topped her former personal low score by three shots with a terrific even-par 72 today! Congratulations to both players. I"m now going to go visit my 88 yr old mom, meet some friends for some supper at The Taste of Edmonton downtown, have a couple of cold ones,and get to bed early tonight. Sorry kids, but you're going to have to wait until Friday morning for full results on the Tour website. The results from Grande Prairie's tournament earlier this week are also in my Inbox and I will post them tomorrow as well, and also update the Srixon Order of Merit. Have a nice evening! ,,,,Dunc.
