The President has sent out the pairings for this Saturday’s Cedar Club Men’s Club Championship.  It promises to be an interesting all-day event with partly sunny skies, a cool temp of 41, and some breezy weather on tap.  “Interesting” because some of the Club’s top players are curiously absent, including top seeds Eric Arvold, Sean Cooley, Peter Drake — even fan favorite Steve “Squirrel” Mayer. (not so curiously, perpetual no-shows Mike Deam and Mike Lynch).

This brings the spotlight back to 3-time Club Champion Brett “Duke” Smith as an early favorite.  Especially since his club ranking dropped to 9th which should mean his B-pairing will be stronger (is that correct Mr. Klafke?).  However, there are four Club Champions playing (Dan Einhorn, Mike Farley, Beany Welch and Andrew Bayliss — the defending champion) in a field of 36 players who would like to get back to the podium.

President Dale Borowiak seeded the tournament and sent out a mistaken draw until revisions were made behind closed doors. He was not available for comment.

The corrected draw is attached.
