JOSE CARISALES

IT'S IN THE BAG

First of all, I want to show my humble appreciation to my great partnership of members whom I call friends for stepping up during last week's tournament. That "covid thing" did a pretty good number on me. In ten years of the league's existence, this was my first absence. Angie, Jamie, Roland, and Jarrod did a fanatic job. Of course, I was trying to run things from my hospital bed while hooked up to oxygen with my totalitarian views and ways. Then I was unplugged from my life source...
Golf Genius. They literally unplugged me(well, not from my oxygen even though at that time it felt like it), took over everything, and did a great job without me by wrapping up the tournament in just under five and half hours.
Let's get down to business, the 2021 Open was a nail-biter that ended with the Golf Gods getting the last laugh as they usually do. Roland Turner, Jamie Villarreal, and Josue Baez were all battling back and forth all day. But Josue pulled away on 15, 16, and 17, and it was almost definite that he would win while another group struggled with Golf Genius working correctly. When that group came in, their scores had to be entered manually. Jose' Sanchez's handicap was too good, and this had Josue moaning and groaning. So basically, the same stuff I get every other week when someone who thinks they should have won doesn't win. Not that I don't listen to it, but it does get old.
We have a USGA handicap system in place that only keeps your top scores and throws out your bad rounds. And we only use 90% of your handicap. Everyone has a chance to win if they play well, and that is what Baez was doing in the Open until he got to hole number 18. Not sure if he got lackadaisical and took his foot off the gas or just got nervous and had a 1999 "Jean Van de Velde British Open" moment. Either way, it cost him three hundred bucks and the crown of the Open Championship.
Jose Cristales was among the few in the group with the Golf Genius issues. He played a good round of golf, and he was looking for his second win of his career with the League. With Baez's triple boogie on 18, this gave Jose' Cristales the Open Championship and the Golf Gods, and a few other players were snickering in the clubhouse.
Congratulation, Mr.Carisales, you are the 2021 Open Champion!
