COVERED          3  6  8  9 

 As has been the case in recent weeks, we had decidedly more minus scores than pluses, and yet there was a solid handful of really good scores. 

  Leading the pack this week is the Mayor of Southie, Joe Curtis who will no doubt be buying the next round at the L Street Tavern with his cash winnings (maybe there's some doubt). Joe put together what is most likely his career SIGL performance at 19 points and a +9, finishing his round with birds on 8 and 9. 

  We had three strong +6s from TJ James, Pat Heffernan, and Jim Shannon which required a look at the card. A par by Shannon on the 5th hole will make the difference. 

  Mr. Curtis still needed a solid partner to ensure 1st Team honors and Paul McDermott provided that with his his +2 for a +11 Team win. 

   Pat Heffernan may also have had his career round in SIGL with a 10pts/+6 showing. Although losing 2nd Individual to a card-off, Pat was paired with a steady +2 from Wayne Musgrove to take 2nd Team at +8. 

   There were 13 birdies for the day, and two will split the pot. Mike Wall had a quiet round but his birdie on 4 was heard loud and clear and is good for $60. Scott Sylvia has been playing some good golf lately and will finally get rewarded for his fine bird on 7. 

   Holes that were smashed were 3rd (Bourne, Tracy, Walsh), 6th (Leonard, Paone, Thompson), 8th (Curtis, Shannon) and the 9th (Curtis, Musgrove, G. Willard). 

  Hard luck players with excellent rounds but no cash were: 

      TJ James                  +6
      Terry Thompson     +5
      Bob Bourne             +5
      Mark Nolan             +4
      Chris Sullivan         +4
      Dan Svirsky            +4 

   Highpointer for the day is Joe Curtis with 19. 

   Beginning next week, we will resume a Closest to Pin competition. We will not be using the Easton marker and tape measure, so we will provide something for the first group. We will start with Hole 2 for CTP and with $25 being paid for CTP, we will resume the old payout for Team and Individual winners ($25 for 1st, $15 for 2nd).  We are also resuming the $5 Back Nine optional skins pool. The B9 slot box and payment envelopes will be in their usual spot at the right side of the bar. Your envelope must be in the box BEFORE you tee off on 10.  
 
   And finally, we are happy to report that 2 Jerks BBQ will be expanding their operation to include Tuesdays. (Mike McNeice says they must have hired a third jerk.) And their featured Tuesday item will be the fan favorite $5 smashburger. You can have one waiting for you at the turn by calling ahead from the 8th tee at 508-238-2500, x2. As a very stable orange genius might say, "Try one; what do ya got to lose?" 

  See you next Tuesday. 

  HEY, I KNOW MORE ABOUT SMASHBURGERS 
          THAN ALL THREE JERKS COMBINED.
