 Breakfast Club Captures Rotary Cup 2009!

After 3 tough losses to an inferior opponent the Knoxville Breakfast Rotary Club took their rightful places as Rotary Cup Champions. 

Not only did the team win, but they did it in convincing style scoring the largest marghin of victory ever in the Cup's 4 year history.

John Powell kicked off the matches Thursday with a 7&6 destruction of whatever hack he was playing. Bob Finelli did the same in the second Thursday match and the team had a 2-0 lead going into the Friday matches, needing only 2 ½ points of the 6 available to seal the deal.

 

 

 Friday winners included Chris Bray, who's 8 & 6 win redeemed last year's unfortunate breakdown on the 18th tee. Tom von Berg took the occasion of the Rotary Cup to shoot a career best 77 to dismantle the tire king of Knoxville, Ray Fisher.

 

 

 

 

 

 But with the heat on and failing health, Bob Tipton pulled off the gutsiest performance in Cup history. Tipton was suffering from flu-like symptoms all day and still managed to take team Captain and lead mouthpiece Doug Powell to the woodshed for an old fashioned beat down. Tipton had Powell so out of sorts he lost a hole on a par 3 after Tipton put his ball out of bounds. Tipton took the lead early and kept it finishing 1-Up in the day's last match to clinch the Cup for the good guys.

The Farragut Club will be scheduling some time to bring the Cup and a $500 check made out to a charity of our choosing as soon as possible. President Tom is looking into whether or not Gettysvue will be able to cook up a little crow that morning.

Good job gentlemen. General Mills has contacted the club about adding our faces to the Wheaties Golf Champions box. Look for it in stores soon.
