Commissioner’s Cup stays blue
Team West, led by Commissioner Jeff Klipa, kept the Cup in blue hands by beating Team East in the 9th edition of the Commissioner’s Cup matches. With Manistee National’s Cutter’s Ridge course serving as the stage, Team West defended the Cup by winning 5 of the 8 singles matches to provide the final 13 to 11 score.
Team West took a 4½ to 3½ lead after the Saturday morning session of team matches. But Team East took 4½ of 8 points in the afternoon session and the teams were tied at 8 going into the Sunday singles. Greg Kline, Jason Rectenwald, Klipa and Mike Prieskorn won the first 4 four matches for the blues and then Tim Markel clinched the Cup for the West by winning the last 2 holes to take a 1-up win against Klaus Juska.
Notable: Erik Meland made a hole in one in the Friday practice round. Team West was happy he used it up.
