Each posting a solid 15-under par 129, the team of Tom Markham, Randy Skorman and Anthony Yacovazzi and the team of Jim Cea, Dave Pulk and John Oyster tied at the top for the Akron District Golf Association’s 3-Man Shamble at Lake Forest Country Club in Hudson on Sunday.
The shamble format is perfect for Lake Forest: the best tee shot is selected from all three like a scramble format, but then players move to that tee shot location and play stroke play from there, with two scores of three counting for the team score.
Illustrating how well they played, the winning pair of teams separated themselves by a whopping seven shots over the trio of third place teams.
