After a two-year absence, the annual Figgy Messer Price Cup made its return to the TS&M Woodlawn Golf Course last weekend.
It is an invitation tournament, with the goal being to fill the teams with friends of Rod Fagerheim, Pat Messer or Dave Price – the three long-time golfers the tournament is named after. Both teams had some new additions from the 2018 tournament
Golfers play for either the Veterans or the Young Guns in a two-day tournament similar to the Ryder Cup, which is between the best golfers from the U.S. and Europe.
The first day saw the golfers compete in fourball and foursomes, which are team events, and the second day had individual showdowns.
The vets won the tournament for the second straight time. The final score wasn’t available, but organizers noted some very close matches occurred in all three brackets.
Ron Dunville and Tony Heath were co-captains of the Veterans’ team, and the squad was rounded out by Scott Blackstock, Pat Murphy, Jim Larter, Jim Wilson, Rob Peloquin, Morgan Burden, Brent Hoffos, Mark Spencer, Terry Rohatyn, Dave Lavoie, Tony Sernick, Brad Dutton, James Gordon and Jason Fenwick.
