2003 Course Championship
11/22 and 11/23
Micah Dorius to no one's surprise is the course champion for the 6th straight year here at Morley Field. Micah carrying the highest PDGA player rating of any pro in San Diego dominated from start to finish over a full field of 75 players including 29 Open players, 7 women, and 39 am players. The finals would have been anticlimactic except for Micah's awesome putting display and 2nd place finisher Don Olow's near ace run on hole 4. After hitting the pin on hole 2 with his drive Donny then slammed the chains on hole 4 only to have the chains sling the disc back out to the exhorted chagrin of the 50 or so spectators. Other top finishers in the final nine were ever steady Jeff Nichols in 3rd and Mike Slonim in 4th having apparently fully recovered from a 2 year bout with foot problems.
In the Women's division Diana Horton came back after a years sabbatical to defend her woman's course champion title only to be out gunned by a determined newcomer Michelle Hackett. If you see a little skinny girl out there throwing the disc as far as you wish you could that would be Michelle. Koreen Ventura and Emily Hardy were also very much in the hunt up to the third round when Michelle's superior fire power carried her to a 7 stroke victory.
In the Am division John Maki had the first day lead of -12 only to find it slip away to the wily veteran and pre event favorite Kent LaGree and steady putting Greg Wintrob who finished at -11 after three rounds. Thinking they were in a playoff for first only to have their hopes dashed by Ray McKillip who carded a personal best -8 in the third round from the second pad to finish at -13 for the tourney. Greg Wintrob also had the only ace of the tourney on hole nine in the first round …all the players paid Greg $1 for his good fortune.
Congratulations to all the winners this year…next up the Southwestern Team Disc Golf Invitational on Dec. 6-7 pitting our 12 best players against the best 12 from 7 other courses. The course will be closed for this event as well.Snapper
