shlinklincoln April 3rd, 2008

Round 4

Kinzler outlasts his competition and wins going away, beating Slaughter and Dutch Roll by three shots, and getting his first win ($4) of the season. At one point midway through the final round all three teams were tied at -29, but Kinzler prevails by shooting the RR of -4 (Ogilvy 68). Slaughter settles for the RU ($1), his second in two weeks, beating Dutch Roll in a playoff on Elkington’s par on 18. Dutch Roll had a solid round but Stricker’s bogeys on 17 and 18 knocked him out of the $.

Kinzler, last place on the Points list just a few weeks ago, is now in 8th place and has momentum heading into next week’s first major of the year.

Round 3

Dutch Roll ties a Rotoff record for low R3 score at -11 (most recently set by Romig in Week 1) and is T1 with Kinzler and Romig at -26 overall. It literall is anyone tournament to win as the top eight teams are separated by only three shots. Can Dutch Roll hang on for his league leading 4th victory of 2008 and increase his Points lead? Stay tuned.
