Recap Judge Smails Cup Final

Freedman & Poverman def McKenna & Walsh 2up

This match started out with the 2 top point makers looking to just play their game and hoping that their partners could take advantage of all the strokes they were getting. The 1st hole saw Freedman hitting his tee shot to the right, but with this 2 handicapper he was able to recover to halve the hole with a par. The 2nd hole Poverman sinks a 25' no brainier to par net birdie and put his team up 1. The 3rd hole belongs to Freedman who drives the green and leaves McKenna and Walsh needing to make something happen, but Freedman 3 putts and the hole was halved. The 4th, with Freedman pissed at the 3 jack on 3 sinks his birdie putt to now take a commanding 2 up lead. McKenna & Walsh step up to the 6th still 2 down and it's now or never. Walsh with the back pin placement has flashbacks from the week before and puts his tee shot just beyond the pin and 2 putts to get to within 1. The 7th hole belonged to the man getting all the shots, Poverman gets on in 2 and par net birdies the hole to put a dagger into McKenna and Walsh. Poverman feeling good follows it up with a par net birdie on 8 and that's all she wrote.
Marshall is no longer allowed to play with his usual group, they don't want him back. I don't think there was a person on the course that did not know the outcome of this match, Marshall could not wait to tell everyone, even people not in the league.
I will need to get a picture of the winners holding the coveted cup.
