Ward Breaks Thru to Take the Grail

True to this reporter’s prediction, it was just a matter of time until Don Ward made it to the winner’s circle. Rookie Don had quickly amassed 4 top 4 finishes coming into Saturday at St. Johns. He logged #5 in style with a sterling 7 under par 65 for a 3 shot victory over fellow rookie and playing partner Greg Paddison. Ward made impressive use of his Holy Hand Grenades to dunk consecutive 1’s on the par 5 sixth and the par 3 7th and post a gross 71 with only 22 putts. Eric Birkle, Jeff Pasz, John Lennane and Willi Hesse all tied for 3rd at 3 under par. On course prizes went to Ward and Birkle and Hesse earned the coveted West Skins Game invitation.
