Presentation of Trophies to Alex Carpenter for winning the 4th of July Championship ALEX CARPENTER BLITZED THE COURSE WITH SCORES OF 64, 60, AND 59 over the Fourth of July week-end. Despite Joey Nichols spectacular eagle on 18, Carpenter sizzled with a 9 under par for the three day total of 183. Joey Nichols played excellent golf, chomping at the bit with a 6 under par 186 was that close to upsetting the champion from last year. We'll have more coverage on this tournament during this week. The Course was in excellent shape and it was challenging. Because the new 14 was changed from a par 4 to a par 3, par was lowered to 64.

Sam McCallister from Bryant, won the Super Senior Championship with a three day total of 209. Stan Lee from Heber Springs, winner of the Senior Championship, shot a 2 under par 190 for the three days, and shot 2 under par for the first and the last day of the tournament. Roger Clement came in second place with a 196. Todd Martin, creamed the competition by winning the Mid-Senior Championship with a one under par for the tournament with a 191. Nate Mosely was the winner of Match Play Championship. Danny Hill finished Second. Tune in the rest of this week with more highlights and shots from the tournament. On a sad note, Jay Lester had to withdraw from the Tournament when his father Bill Lester (1920-2010) died. Our condolences sympothy goes out to Jay and his family. Once again, this report would not have been possible without the contributions of Bob Baker, the Facilities Manager and golfer in residence at the famed War Memorial Golf Course.

Sam McCallister shot a cool 65 one over par in the second day to top his 70 on Saturday to take the lead in the Super Seniors going into Monday for the Super Seniors with Larry Patterson close behind with a 126 and Dan Young third with a 128. Absent from the field this year is perennial winner Ralph Williams who is recuperating from eye surgery. So Sam finally had some time for his day in the sun.

Roger Clement who shot par on Saturday and Sunday is tied for first with Stan Lee in the Senior Division. Lee Shot a wonderful 62 on Saturday, then tripped up with a 66 on Sunday.

Todd Martin is comfortably in the lead in the Mid-Senior Division after a great 62 on Saturday and then a one over par 65 on Sunday.
The Second Day of the War Memorial Fourth of July Tournament brought another humid day, but with wind. Rain cooled off the Course after blistering heat the day before. Past champions jockeyed for position for an exciting finish to the second round of the championship tournment which to say the least was anticlimactic for those watching only because there was one more day and anything can happen especially at War Memorial Golf Course. Joey Nichols, a tax lawyer with the Friday Law Firm from Little Rock, edged out Alex Carpenter, last years champion for the second day of the tournament. But Carpenter was just 1 stroke behind with a 124 for 36 holes. Tied for third were Neil Phelps and Lyle Middleton with a 36 hole total of 125. Not to be outdone, Lane Hulse and Michael Satterwhite tied for fourth place with a 36 hole total of 126.

Its going to be a dazzling finale tomorrow, even if it doesn't rain. The writer wishes to thank Bob Baker for providing todays scores in time for this publication.

Bastille Day July 14, 2009 Tournament

Wayne Waggoner as promised serenaded the contestants with his rendition of La Marseillaise to start the Bastille Day Tournament. Four golfers marched through the War Memorial Golf Course catapulting their shots upto the embankments and onto the greens. In the spirit of the day, tournament chair Ralph Williams lead the players through the rules requiring contestants to tee off on alternating tees of blue, white and red throughout the tournament. It wasn't easy-and no, noone won the penultmate prize of a trip for 2 to Paris (Arkansas that is by bus) with a hole in one on the 17th. Excitement and thrills from the crowds came on the 8th hole when James Thomson holed out with a pitch shot above the hole about 30 feet that hit the flag stick and then dropped into the hole. Colin Osment, a rising star finally got his game on the back nine-must of waked up by then, with a 36. Tournament players were treated to application of their handicaps to obtain blistering net scores for Thomson a 57 and Waggoner a 67.
