The scorecards made it home, and the wire finally sang: Chris Clogston posted 77 for low gross — his sixth gross title in seven starts — while the net crown split two ways at 71 between Cam Kashfia, back-to-back after Echo Falls, and Gray Griswold, who also took the team title with Warren Berger at 61. Twenty-seven players, fourteen teams, one very good Saturday.
Gross: Clogston. Again. Chris Clogston posted 77 for his sixth gross title in seven starts — at this point the Commissioner's Cup engraver is just working in pencil until October. Jon Hayenga's 80 took second, the league's most faithful pursuer keeping the gap honest, and Gray Griswold's 82 claimed third — and Griswold's day was only getting started.
Net: a crown shared. Cam Kashfia and Griswold both signed for 71 — Kashfia going back-to-back after his Echo Falls 70, Griswold completing the day's rare treble: third in gross, a share of first in net, and the team title. Warren Berger's 72 took third outright, the strokes earning their keep as ever.
Team: Griswold & Berger, 61. The 11:39 partners lapped the field by two over a three-way pileup at 63 — Tanor Johnson & Kashfia, Hayenga & Tom Alvis, and Tom Colleran & Lucas Hufford all a card-flip short. $120 to the winners, $60 apiece to the trio, and nothing but memories for everyone else.
The margins: the sixteen-team sheet became fourteen by Saturday, and with twenty-seven players making an odd number, Jerry Nakata pulled honest double duty on two teams. Bill Morgan gave the field a 108 and still cashed $200,000, because in this league even the hard days pay. And Hayenga stuck the 13th to 4' 2" for the pin of the afternoon.
Two stops left, and the Tour heads to Cedarcrest in Marysville — a 9:00 start, which means alarm clocks, thermoses, and at least one member discovering on the first tee that his glove is still in the other bag. Sixty-five dollars, walk it if you dare, no range — your first swing of the day counts, gentlemen. And the wire finally sang again: the league office re-posted the draw on 9/3 — seven groups off 7–8 minute intervals, one man fewer than the first sheet.
The 1-2-3 best ball went to the 10:30 group — Gray Griswold, Jeff Johnson, Matt Uhlar and Mike Woerner at 133, clear by two — after the Clubhouse Oracle simulated a million rounds and picked them fourth. Cam Kashfia's 70 took low net, Chris Clogston's 75 low gross, and the algorithm's one framed-and-hung call was the basement. The full reckoning is preserved on the event page.
Three days, three courses, one runaway. Tank & Jeff Johnson led the $3,040 Calcutta wire-to-wire, closing at 284 — six clear of the Fagan brothers. Berger & Mischke's 89 at Lake Padden was the low round of the entire trip. The complete 54-hole leaderboard, championship payouts, and round-by-round notebook are preserved on the event page.
