The competition at the 19th Hackers Cup could not have been any tighter……… Team World 27 points, Team Canada 28 points. Congratulations to all, as everybody comes out a winner in a challenge event this close. Congratulations also to Billy Mac for the obvious parity in his creation of the teams.
The final tabulations per hole and per foursomes are shown below:

I could autograph your balls if you likeWhy? Well Ab is supposed to call me when its our turn to tee off.Is that a couple of Wasaga Real Estate Typhoons beside Pete?Did I mention that I would be happy to autograph your balls?Do you think they discussed their costumes before they left the beach?
Some of the Team World crew
I have her well-trained, wouldn’t you say?Two desperados from Lanark, with their eyes on the prize table and their pockets filled with erasers.So a Frenchman, a Cowboy, an Irishman, and a Scotsman go into a bar……..I thought I was able to keep this for eternity!Looks like Gillie brought his ‘A’ game. Number 10 in your program, Number 1 in your heart!
Roundabouts
“If we give ourselves three birdies each, it should look fairly legitimate”I’m tellin’ ya right now Bobby, you still owe me that 35 bucks!Keith likes to photo bomb!I might as well fill this in now since I tee off last.You haven’t hit it yet Bob! I heard that you had your hand on his lap while driving the cartHmmmmm…. I wonder how many foot wedges I can sneak in on these sleepyheads?Hey! I pulled out a plum!Here, you shove it, I already have a $20 cucumber up there!There’s something about that right wrist, but I just can’t put my finger on it.Can you flagbaggers get the cart any closer to the green?
Awards and Celebrations
Do you think my nose looks less conspicuous, Jerr?Don’t speak to me Gillie until you’ve given me those three birdies!Does the Fish and Chips come with fries?I detect an odourWas that you Gordo?I’d like to thank Pete and Shag for at least showing upRule #37: The team with the most points are the winnersJust give me the damn thing and let me go home!I got a letter from Patrick BrownSome were not too happy with the thickness of their envelopeLots of smiles and laughterThe expression of a successful day, indeed!

Even though we have the most genuine and authentic souls in our group, there is evidence of a lot of foul musings and shifty undertakings going on before and after the event. The prolific prize table was to blame for sure.
Don’t you think I deserve some sort of prize for picking up the flag on every hole?
In desperation, some even attempted a seemingly obtuse putting technique
Thank you Melissa!
A beautiful day for golf captured for eternity by Dan and Jerry. !
