Click here to download 2012 Inland Empire Apprentice Orientation schedule February 8, 2012 – Apprentice Orientation at the Links at Summerly It came down to the last hole and a playoff for the 2nd consecutive year. Coming into the last hole it looked like this: Henry Liaw and Dan Hornig at -5, and Paul Dietsche at -4. Jerry Crowell finished in the group ahead of them, going bogey-bogey, to finish at -3. Then the 18th hole at Goose Creek did what it does best…..create massive carnage. Dietsche made triple and both Liaw and Hornig made doubles! Crowell had new life as the playoff fell at -3. Hornig, Liaw, and Crowell went back to the 18th for the playoff. On the first playoff hole, Henry Liaw had troubles and bowed out with a double bogey. Hornig was safely on in 2 and Crowell was in a very very very bad position long over the green with no green to work with. Crowell hit a one of a kind flopper to 8 feet and made the putt for par. Hornig 2 putted so back to 18 again went Dan and Jerry. Jerry hit his tee shot in the water and Dan cooley hit a great metal wood to 10 feet for an easy two putt par 4, and victory. Dan’s firts place check of $3,400 set a new standard in the IE Chapter Championship. The Chapter members cannot say thanks enough to Goose Creek for their continued unbelievable efforts in putting on this event. The course was just so good it was scary, food both days from Sysco and Philly’s Best was top notch, drinks all over the course, and continued beverages in the clubhouse. Thanks to Rob Keller of the Section staff for not only playing, but setting up Blue Golf TV in the clubhouse and doing hole by hole scoring on the section website. See you all at Yucaipa for the Players Championship next month! The IE Cup at Victoria Club follows in October, so the race is on to make the team. Can we beat the amateurs this year please??
