Due to the overwhelming response to this year’s sign-ups for the 2010 Beaver State Fling National Tour Event, the staff has decided to split the Pro/Am weekend in order to accommodate additional players.  The National Tour event will take place on the originally scheduled weekend of May 28th-30th and the Amateur Super Tour event will take place the following weekend of June 5th and 6th. 

There is an old saying that the cream always rises to the top and today was no exception during round 3 of the Memorial Championship. Josh Anthon continued his great play of late when he carded an 1109 preliminary rated round of -15 at Fountain Hills on Friday to propel himself from the second card into a three throw lead over Dave Feldberg with 18 holes left to play on Saturday.

Open division tournament leader Barry Schultz, who shot a -11 at Fountain Hills in round one, sustained a hand injury and was forced to withdraw from the Memorial just prior to his 1:45pm scheduled tee time today.

The 2010 National Tour got off to a quick start today in Fountain Hills, Arizona at The Memorial Championship, presented by Discraft.
