Vaaler Creek Tournament Results

Vaaler Creek results are now available.

  • CTGA welcomed New Members JOSE CASTILLO and APRIL McALISTER to our Vaaler Creek tournament.
  • NOTE ABOVE that Colovista will be our last tournament until January 23.
  • Our Pace of Play at Vaaler Creek took a step back as we had several foursomes finish well over 5 hours.  Vaaler Creek slipped several general public groups in between our foursomes, so it was difficult to determine if the cause of our delays were self-inflicted or the result of the course being slowed by added foursomes.
  • We will discuss this issue with Colovista in the hopes that they won’t allow general public foursomes to start within our event.
