Wisconsin Refugee Matchplay

Update on the match between @DylanB and myself. We unexpectedly met at Erin Hills for an impromptu TGJ meet up. We both determined there was no better place for a match. The 9-mile walk in 94 degree heat resulted in a battle of the fittest (and a bogey-fest). @DylanB was the victor 2&1.

Well done, my friend!

The most serendipitous match there ever was! Though @DWise took home best-dressed, per usual.

You get that out of here, I don’t need to be jealous all day.

As I know it right now:

Need to have @HackMarkham and @MuniMafia play their match to get us to the elite 8 to play against @Slick.

What I have for the elite 8 matches at this point:
@DylanB vs @brettfreddy5
@Syvm64 vs @ajvhandel
@Klebs01 vs @jknudtson

If anybody has any updates for me, let me know. We gotta get to the final two to represent Wisconsin in the “Ope”-in on August 20th and 21st.

If matches get hung up with non-communication or life happening, let me know so we can figure it out to get this all in.

Not going to be able to play in the Midwest Ope-in now due to another conflict if I were to make it. And life is hectic right now, so to keep the ball rolling I’ll concede to @HackMarkham. Good luck the rest of the way fellas!

@jknudtson conceded the match to me as well.

I am going to be conceding my match to @brettfreddy5. I have a wedding the weekend of the Ope-In and in the slim chance I make it through, would not be able to attend the final match.

@Syvm64 and I are set up to play our match at LLB next Friday (7/23) at 7:24a. Looks like there are still two spots open at that time slot if anyone else would want to join us

Had a great match at LLB this morning with @Syvm64! Neither of us brought our A-Game, but @Syvm64 held on to win 1-up and will be moving on! Will definitely be a tough out moving forward!

I’ll do my best to get an updated bracket out there this weekend, but I don’t think we have too many matches left.

Thank you all for getting all the matches scheduled and played without having to bother you much, if at all!

It was a blast and another great guy to meet in this bracket. We both couldn’t seem to make a putt to save our lives but we got it around good enough.

And then there were 4.

We are down to the final 4 and determining who will be playing in the “Ope”-in representing Wisconsin.

It’s @HackMarkham vs @brettfreddy5 and @Syvm64 vs @Klebs01

We have about 5 weeks left before the fun and games begin in Lawsonia, so get those matches in soon. I know it’s Madison’s city tournament next weekend for @Syvm64 and any other Madison area refugees, and I know that it’s the start of Member-Guest SZN as well so understand that scheduling gets a bit interesting. Let me know if there are any issues and I’ll do my best to moderate things as best I can.

Lovingly,

You dictator and beloved idiot, @midwestgolfbum

Gents, I know there’s been a lot going on. We have 3 weeks to the “Ope”-in and would love to have the info for who’s attending as soon as we can. Let me know when you are able to get things scheduled for that.

Much love, Evan

@HackMarkham and I are going to play our match this Thursday at Spring Valley around 3ish. Looking for a 4th if anyone’s free.

I just called Spring Valley and they have a league that goes off at 3:30 so we would have to go off earlier @fourleafgrover

I don’t think I can make it, would be coming back from work in Milwaukee

Recently landed a new job so I won’t be it making out to Lawsonia anymore. With that being said, I concede to @brettfreddy5

Give em hell boys.

Congrats on the new job but am sorry that you can’t make it work.

@brettfreddy5 is the first of our representatives for the “Ope”-in. Will be waiting with baited breath to see who of @Syvm64 and @Klebs01 will be the other.
