Shane McCloud

Shane McCloud teamed with John Cunningham (not pictured) to win the May 25 stop at White Plains Golf Course on the Scramble Tour sponsored by Miller Light. McCloud, knowing he had just one chance since Cunningham had left the course not aware his team had scored enough, holed his attempt during a putt off to capture the win after tying with the duo of Jim Krautkramer and Bob Weaver at 21 points in the modified Stableford system used by the Tour.

Cunningham and McCloud made 6 pars, 1 bogey, and two birdies on the back nine to gain their 21 points and the winners’ prize courtesy of the host course.

The Scramble Tour rotates play among the Cookeville area courses and next week’s stop is at Cookeville Golf Course on Wednesday, June 1, 2011. New players are always welcome. See more at tour.uppercumberlandgolf.com .

White Plains scramble scrambled

Bob Weaver — Wed, 04 May 2011 12:17:18 +0000

Due to the recent heavy rains the April 28, 2011 ABCD scramble at White Plains Golf Course was played in a unique fashion using the back nine holes except that #9 substituted for hole 13 which was still drenched. The unusual circuit’s play ended in a tie as two teams made it to 5 under par and even a score card play-off could not determine a winner as both teams had identical scores on each hole.

Scoring 5 under to gain a tie are from left: Peter Grima, Wayne Lafever, Tre Lamb. Not pictured: Ed Broadwell
