TPX Semi at The Els Club
Mark vs TMangroveI won 2&1 This was a game which went back and forth. I won #2, TMan won #4 and #5. A/S after my birdie at #6. Tman made a great pitch in to win #9. I won 2 of the next 3 holes and had a 1up lead. We tied #13 to #16 and I managed to hole a great birdie putt on #17 to win the match. That was a thoroughly enjoyable battle TMan - thank you. Confirmed. I didn't play awful, but I was no match for Mark's quite improved tpx game. He has passed my abilities by. He throws darts at the pin while spectators would be injured by the darts I throw I shot -11 if you discount the hurried bogey after I had lost a hole, but Mark finished up at -13 in looking at the stroke play numbers. I needed a lucky pitch-in and a rare par 3 birdie just to keep things close. Congratulations, Mark. It was a well earned victory. It should be a good final against Dave. TMan

TPX Final at Costa Navarino
Mark1772 vs Davski
I won 1up.
This was a close exciting match which went back and forth. Dave won #3 with an eagle I won #8 and #9 to be 1up at the turn. The back 9 went back and forth but essentially turned in my favour when Dave 4 putted #16 after hitting the green in 2. It wasn't nice to watch because of the tricky pin position and it was a real shame the game was won/lost in that fashion. This gave me a 1up lead and we both birdied #17 and #18. Unlucky Dave.

TPX consolation round at Els
Derek & JoeCool
JoeCool wins 1UP at the 27th hole OFFICIAL
me and derek, birds of a feather...he's either shootin lights out or seeming to struggle with it all. he had me 3Down before i knew what hit me, then chipped away to get 1UP late, which i handed back. matching birds on 18 left it AS in regulation. after a 5 minute break, it was back out, where i got to 2UP quickly before getting sloppy. it was AS thru 26 holes, and i got the bird on 27 to steal the win.
GG Derek!!! and thanx

Unlucky Dave. confirmed. Not unlucky. I was lucky to hang with you for that long I rushed my putts on 16 like a moron. This was another epic match for my wiiga playoff career and my third straight TPX 2nd place finish. I seem to be always good, but never the best . Awesome match Mark, and congrats on the championship!!! Oh yeah, and I believe I owe you a gold bar now Thanks Again man!!!!!!!

PLAYOFFS - PRO - Celtic(3) kenw -61 (6) wayknow - 66 Way and I unintentionally held up the PRO brackets. We were trying to decide who wants to play Tman more At least that's the excuse we are sticking too! Hole #1, we both bogey as a test with the new tourney sets for this season. From holes 1-10, we matched shot for shot. Hole 11 - P5 ken eagles to take a 1up lead. Holes 12 and 13. shot for shot hole 14 - ken birdies to go up 2. hole 15 - way birdies to get it back to within 1. hole 16 - ken birdies to get back to 2 up hole 17 - ken pars to seal the match. 2 &1hole 18 - way eagles to kens bird. Considering how we matched shot for shot the first 10 holes, it was looking like OT was in our near future. Way had a couple of bad breaks, including a lip out on #17. Had he made it, we would have seen a new front 9. Great battle way, as we always have!!! -ken

TPX Consolation Play-Off @ Costa...
Kryptonite66 vs. JoeCool
Kal-El wins 3 & 1
congrats, ManOfSteel. i had you down 2 early, but you rose to the occasion while i kept leaving myself putts from the wrong blue planet orbiting the yellow sun. it went back and forth, but you were Dormie 2 after 16. my tee shot on the Par-3 17th was true, but i only got around 90% of it, leaving me nasty in the bunker with no hope. if there was a concede button i woulda pressed it then.

Up till today, we have only pm'd each other. Seems weird, but its true. I wasn't at the top of my game and thus left jim several opportunities. After it was officially over, jim and I had a race on the 18th. See who could hole out the fastest. I won that event, but jim wasn't too far behind me And somehow we even made birdies. Was great to finally meet up with jim after all this time -ken

AM Final at Costa Navarino
Mark1772 vs Tazman52
I won 4&3
I made an eagle at #3 and a birdie at #4 to take a 2up lead. I then made a pitch in eagle on #6 (obviously you try to do it but there's still an element of good fortune when it drops in) to extended my lead. We halved the remaining holes on the F9. On the B9 I won #12 with an eagle to go 4up and we halved #13, #14 and #15.
Congratulations Taz on reaching your first final and coming 2nd in your first Season at WiiGA. You caught me on a very good day.

Pro Semifinal at Els Club TMangrove defeats kenw 4&3 Ken took his usual meticulous approach to these sorts of affairs by asking me after the match was over what the course conditions were We both fired birdies at the first and I hit a rare birdie on the tough par 3 2nd to take a 1 up lead. I won the 5th hole as well by pitching in from off the green for eagle. I won the 7th hole and made the turn at 3 up. On the back 9 I won holes 11 and 12 to push the lead to 5 up. Ken won his first hole of the match on 14 but it was too late as we halved the next hole to end the match. Ken did have an excellent birdie on the par 3 17th as we played the round to its conclusion. Thanks for the game Ken. It's always a blast. I had a bit of good fortune on my side and that probably made the difference. TMan

TPX 3rd Place Match at Costa Navarino
TMangrove defeats Dude1956 2up after 27 holes
This was a tight match throughout as I fell behind on the first hole but kept battling to stay close. I found the bunker several times on those long uphill approach shots. I was able to get up and down from off the green each and every time despite having 65% and 70% bunker lies in a couple of instances. I manged to pitch in once to win a hole as well.
In the end Dude took a 1up lead to the par 5 18th. I was only able to birdie it but somehow Dude only wound up with a par and extra holes were in the cards. The extra holes were back and forth as I took and early lead, fell behind and took the lead again. One of the keys was an eagle 2 on a short par 4 as I held on for the close win.
Thanks for the game, Dude. You hit some excellent shots and really anyone could have won this.
TMan

Pro Semifinal at Els Club TMangrove defeats kenw 4&3 CONFIRMEDIt is true that I rarely ever look at the sets, even though I am responsible for pulling them when setting up tourney's This was for the shot at a 2nd place finish and Tman was simply the better player. I had a blast as I always do when I do playoff rds. There's just one think preventing mark for taking the covenant and rare triple crown. That thing is none other than Tmangrove Good luck to the both of you. I think it will be quite the battle!! -ken

Pro Final at Costa Navarino
Mark1772 vs TMangroveI won 1up I never felt really comfortable playing today Idk why - that might sound strange especially as I holed a 50ft+ putt on #2 for eagle. I had to battle hard and truly concentrate. I can't even remember too accurately which holes I won and those which TMan won (I think TMan has the video). I made some great putts and I missed some putts. TMan was in the match right up until the very end - he played some truly great golf with wonderful apps and great putting. Great match TMan

I had been tasked by Ken with stopping Mark - the Triple Crown Juggernaut. I set about my task by taking course notes in the morning on elevation changes and club choices plus practicing one time using those notes later in the day. It all paid off in terms of my score because that's probably the best round I've played there. I made 16 birdies and 2 pars. Mark may have missed a couple of putts but I think he did so on purpose just to keep it interesting Mark won holes 2, 4, 6 and 14 while I won 5, 13 and 17. Congratulations Mark! You're clearly the better player and this is well deserved. I'll take some small consolation in at least forcing you to play all 18 The target is on your back next season Here's the video link: www.ustream.tv/recorded/19857683TMan

Hooked up with Firestricker over @ the BAGS site today and we got our match in.
It was a close match all the way, but I managed to pull off some real lucky putts and won 2 up in the end. Fire had some bad luck along the way, but it took to the last hole to secure the win.
Great match Fire. Thx for the game.

I played as well as I ever will and I still came up short. We both shot 53's. Kudo's Dude Mark, Jim... My record against these guys are 2-88 are you sure you want me to play in the Giacomo Cup?? My offer to be Gunga Din still stands.

PLAYOFFS - PRO - Coasta
ken - 56 davski - 59
kenw won 3&2.
Dave and I matched shot for shot on the first 5 holes. Hole 6, I got a freakishly lucky bounce off the wall of the bunker to make the green and I made the putt for Eagle to go 1up. It was so weird, it should be illegal, but with no refs around, we kept it. EA didn't think it was fair and thus took it back on the next hole to make it ALL SQUARE again. A birdie on #9 gave ken a 1up at the turn.
Holes 10-13 we were knotted. ken was able to birdie the 14th to go 2 up. After another birdie on the 16th, it was ken up 3 with 2 to go. We each birdied #17 and 18.
It was a great rd by us both, to be honest! A -13 for dave and a "frenchy-esq" - 16 for me. I don't get scores like that too often, so I was happy.
