NCGA STROKE PLAY – HARDY AND McElyea lead at -5 after two rounds

WOW did this golf course play tough today with pins that I frankly have never seen before. With the best amateurs in Nor Cal in the field, only two rounds under par were produced. Cory McElyea had a very impressive 68 today and is tied with first round leader Scott Hardy at -5 139. The last round here at Poppy Hills can produce some real drama as every hole on this course has some danger lurking for that errand shot.

This has been a long week down here for the three events over the last 9 days with the last round tomorrow. I’ve been involved in a double eagle to nip me for a major NCGA event, and today another painful occurrence happened. I had just hit a great bunker shot out on #13 to a foot, and excitedly I went to knock the sand off my shoes with the sand wedge when I missed my shoe and caught the side of my knee at full tilt with my wedge. Down to the ground I went and thoughts of withdrawing from the British Senior Open in Scotland were my biggest fear as I rolled on the ground in pain. After 8 Motrin’s I felt perhaps i could continue…what ensued was a very rocky round of 73 leaving me 5 shots of the leaders.

After many icing sessions I will attack this course tomorrow with a vengeance in pursuit of that perfect round of 65 or 66. Stay tuned and find out what happens tomorrow as the NCGA will crown it’s 2010 Stroke Play Champion!

7th Annual NCGA Amateur Stroke Play Championship
