It was great to finally get some golf weather! Just wanted to send out a quick email recapping yesterday's winners. I will have my Fireside Chat to get into some more details later in the week.
Congrats to Jim Tokanel on taking top honors. Looking at the scorecard he played some great golf with just a few blunders toward the end of each side. It's great to see Jim playing well again, he has been battling some injuries and adversity so always nice to see him back on the top of the leaderboard. Jim was able to muster up a 77/69 round on way to victory. Also the only player who was able to shoot a sub 80 gross round.
Connor Shaw was in the mix all day and has now played very well in his 2 events with a win and a runner up finish to sit at 2nd in the season long standings just 3 points behind our leader Chris Roussin. Chris took advantage of the home course knowledge to finish in 5th place at +1.
Robert Wenrich was able to come in 3rd with a -1 and will look back at hole 16th as the pivotal point in the round as he unfortunately made an 8 on that hole which cost him the championship. Marc Graham has a career best 4th play finish at E par which is awesome to see, I think we are all happy when Marc has a great finish as he battles out there with us constantly and it was great to see him with a good finish this week. Well done Marc!
Also, wanted to make mention of a few new faces to LFG we had out there yesterday as it was great to Meet Noah Dubois who happened to have found us on Blue Golf. Also Pat Lahey, Justin Wojcik and Jim McKenzie were great to see out there and all held their own for their first round. We hope to see you guys more! Although not his first event, I also want to mention Chris Pacia who has joined us for the first 3 events and is new this year and continually is having better finishes as he finished 11th yesterday. Hope you are all enjoying it so far!

Season long standings have been updated and can be seen here.
NEXT EVENT:
Next event will be our First Major of the year which is worth 1.5 times what a regular season event is worth so a good chance to grab some points and move up the ranks quickly with a good finish. We will be at the Gorgeous Montcalm which is always one of our best events at one of the top courses in the state. Please go ahead and register ASAP for this as Montcalm would like Final numbers by Sunday./
WGR Rankings- Jim Tokanel continues to hold the first place spot in our World Golf Rankings after yesterdays win.
Thanks everyone, I know a lot of you guys were able to start planning your Match Play Matches yesterday and I anticipate we will start seeing some results of those over the next week or 2.
