2008 Chippewa Club Champ Dr. Jeff Mallette brought sub John Oyster to Chippewa on Monday and introduced him to the top of the leaderboard and a pocket full of skins money.
Mallette and Oyster posted a 3-under par 33 to win by two shots in the better ball format on the back nine, including a carry-over birdie skin on the par-3 17th.
A host of teams tied for second at 1-under par 35.
The team of Sam Spino and Dave Oates was one of those T2 finishers, and they also nabbed a skin with a birdie on 16 to further pad their lead on the season-long money list, updated here.
Next week, the Chippewa Scratch League heads to Rosemont Country Club in Fairlawn for the final Cash / Steak Night of the season. As always, the format will be a 12-hole Jumble (three holes each of scramble, better ball, aggregate and alternate shot).
SCHEDULING NOTE: The $100 Big Skins Game also will be held at Rosemont next Monday, but with tee times beginning at 10:30 a.m. so that there is plenty of daylight to complete the 12 holes of league play.
