The Vibram Open at Maple Hill

So we arrived into Boston after returning from Sweden where we spent the last two weeks on the EuroTour. The Swedish tournaments were amazing and had some consistent finishes in both the Stockholm Open (5th) and the Scandinavian Open (4th). Our good friend Tim Walsh picked us up and provided us with a place to stay with his family throughout the weekend.

On Thursday (July 24) I celebrated the big 3-0 and spent the day playing doubles designed for the top four players in National Tour points in attendance at the tournament. Dave and I were the obvious doubles team along with Schultz and McCabe being the other team. The tournament then organized a doubles qualifier where Sprague, Olson and Pete Johnson became the final team as a triple team. They all threw tee shots and then were allowed to choose the best shot and that player was then not allowed the following shot. It preceded on from that point until the hole was finished. We played a stableford doubles points format where the teams were awarded 10 pts foran eagle, 3 pts for a birdie, 0 pts for a par, -1 pts for a bogey and -2 for a double bogey or worse. Long story short, Dave and I played decent but due to that type of format and limited chances at eagle placed 3rd. We still walked away with some appearance fees and enjoyed our time getting another practice round in before the start of the tournament.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
