JEREMY WILLIAMS WINS AT THE WILDERNESS WITH 8 BIRDIES AND LAPS THE FIELD

CHRIS ALLEN

THE MIRACLE AT TIMBER CREEK

The legendary Chris Allen, otherwise known as The Apostle, sent the entire field to their doom. Even the King and the Big Red One could not avoid the wrath of The Apostle. Chris was in top form, with four lightning-bolt birdies soaring from the sky. Chris has not played this well since Moses descended the mountain with the Ten Commandments! Well, maybe not that long ago, but I had to do some deep digging to find out about his last victory at Tour 18 in 2018. Just the other day we were talking on the phone and he was feeling quite disheartened with his game. I didn't want to give him any reassuring words of wisdom, as the Culture Cup was rapidly approaching and he was on the team that had won back-to-back championships. Not to mention, he was the MVP last year. So Jose Sanchez and Joe Hart attempted to exert pressure early on the front nine, but Chris disregarded it and his 37 on the back nine was enough to silence any doubters. His divine play was sourced from a higher power, and his win placed him atop Mount Ararat. Congratulations Chris on your very impressive victory!
