2001TBI Club Championship  

Slaminko Excavates Field at Meadow Park

Ron Slaminko won the 2001 TBI Club Championship with a sizzling net 66 at Meadow Park Golf Course in Tacoma on August 11th.  Shawn Tovey captured Low Gross honors with an 86 and was  the only golfer to break 90.

Meadow Park, site of last year's championship where nobody broke par, played tough again this year, as hot weather hardened the greens, and the course yielded only 24 pars and two birdies to the field of golfers. The sandal-clad Slaminko used an iron off the tee on all but one hole, and the strategy paid off as he avoided big numbers and dug out a 3 stroke victory.

Shawn, taking advantage of several fortuitious bounces off trees, shot a front nine 39, closing the nine with four consecutive pars. Playing partner Chris Tovey birdied the 10th and closed to within three shots on the 15th hole, but was unable to overtake his brother down the stretch.

Mike Tovey shot a front nine 42 that featured several key putts, but was victimized by a mysterious lost ball on the tenth hole that seemingly vanished from the left edge of the fairway.

Carvin Wilson won Closest to the pin on the 8th hole, nailing a 17 foot birdie putt in the process. Bert Dewell won KP on #17. Chris Tovey won the prize for long drive on the narrow 9th hole.

Congratulations to Ron Slaminko and Shawn Tovey, TBI Club Champions for 2001.
