Kline wins Tin Cup
Central division Commissioner Greg Kline was the only player to hit the peninsula green at Hickory Creek’s 17th hole completing the comeback and winning the 2006 Tin Cup on Saturday. He shot 40-37 – 77 and beat the ’04 Tin Cup champ David Martin by a stroke. Martin maxed out on the 17th taking a quadruple bogey 7 and a finishing birdie at 18 was not enough to force a playoff.
Kline hit 8 of 18 greens, most in the field, and putted just well enough on Hickory Creek’s slippery slopes to finish with the lowest net score. The 5-over 77 was the highest winning score in Tour history, not counting the Strokes on a Rope tournament. Bob White led the field with 31 putts and Barb Randle hit 10 fairways.
