Duluth, GA USA (AP) – NFGA Update
Current scores leading into the final round are as follows:
Player Strokes +/- Back
MaT 58 (-14) +0
Sammy
59 (-13) +1
Robby 63 (-9) +5
Wayne 65 (-7) +7
Travis 66 (-6) +8
Current Cup holder
So, what can one say? MaT has never scored better than a fifteen under (-15) this season. Sammy, on the other hand, holds the course record with nineteen under (-19). With a one stroke Cup differential and a four stroke season differential, this one is still wide open.
What does this say about the last round of the season? I think we all know what it says!
MaT and his late breaking “Magnum†sponsorship are at serious risk and the possibility that he may lose if he does not sustain his momentum will be a factor that may just take his mind out of the round and cost him his sponsorship into next season.
And, while MaT and Sammy go at each other, Robby will, no doubt, be making a run at both based on his season best eighteen under (-18).
Assuming any of these players can score their best of the season, MaT may be going down, but luckily, based on his new sponsorship, he will be going down with “protection!â€
Another battle will be brewing for third place and Robby is the catalyst for pulling this one in as well. Making him the “pivot man†his current third place ties all of the action together. And if you have been to any of these rounds, you will know that the action will get fast and furious on the “Travis Trail†which officially starts on the fifteenth tee. Robby's incevtive to get into MaT and Sammy's game will be to stay out in front of Wayne and Travis who will have a battle going of ther own. And this battle might just jump up into Robby's space if he does not pull out early.
If you have twenty dollars ($20) to invest, I recommend you go to Ticket Master to purchase your ticket before this round is sold out. There are still tickets available for the twelfth, fifteenth and sixteenth fairways as well as the seventh and seventeenth greens.
All parking passes have been issued so you will have to catch a free shuttle from the Duluth Station parking lot on Buford Highway. Pickups are in front of the west side of the parking lot in front of Subway who is offering a 20% discount for NFGA SC ticket holders.
