The Club Championships were played over a three-day period ending on March 20, 2018. This annual competition includes play from Gold tees, Silver tees and Copper tees. This is a gross score competition with the lowest score over three rounds the winner, except for the Copper Flight which is scored on a net score basis. The Club Champion must have played the Gold tees to qualify to be the overall winner.
Day two was moving day as high winds contributed to many scores in the 90s and positions shifted dramatically in several flights. Calmer weather made for a better contest on day three.
This year, the Club Champion is Bob Ford (gross score 230), winning for the ninth time at Quail Creek. Quite a record!
