Congratulations to the winner of the men’s 2020 Bent Tree Golf Club Championship this weekend. This was the 14th time he has won…amazing! I think 1984 was the first year he took home the trophy.

“Participation Surge”
Click here to link to the National Golf Foundation’s July 29th Covid-19 Impact article. At the mid-point of the year, data is pointing to a possible 20% increase in the number of junior golfers (ages 6-17) this year. Quoting from the article, “It makes sense, with golf celebrated as a safe and healthy outdoor activity for all ages as the coronavirus rages on. With many youth sports on hold or slowly coming back, and families seeking activities they can do together, especially as schools were out, golf has emerged as a terrific alternative.“

20th Annual Bent Tree Ice Breaker Golf Tournament
Here’s hoping the rain stays away long enough to get in the Ice Breaker tournament today. It will definitely be much warmer than last year’s Ice Breaker.

Five Years Ago on the Golf Course
I was looking through some old photos yesterday and came across this one from five years ago. That was a lot of turkeys passing through the fairway on Hole 5!
