Five months after it was originally scheduled, the 2016 CGA Four-Ball Championship will be contested this weekend.
Weather-permitting, of course.
Snow prevented the Four-Ball from being held in early May, but it’s back on the schedule for Friday through Sunday (Oct. 7-9) at Legacy Ridge Golf Course in Westminster.
A total of 45 two-person teams are entered in the 54-hole scratch best-ball stroke-play event.
Seven past CGA Four-Ball champions are entered, but just one intact team of past winners: Keith Humerickhouse and Jared Bickling, the 2014 champs from Gypsum Creek Golf Course. Other former winners of the Four-Ball scheduled to compete are two-time champions Steve Irwin (teaming with Barry Erwin) and Jon Lindstrom (with Richard Bradsby), along with Alex Buecking (with Trent Isgrig), James Richardson (with Justin Gold), and Michael Love (with Brian McCloy).
In May, Buecking advanced to the quarterfinals of the U.S. Amateur Four-Ball, with his national teammate Jason Enloe of Dallas.
Also entered at Legacy Ridge are 2015 CGA Match Play champion Nick Nosewicz (teaming with Michael Bartley), and Ben Sherlund and Zach Fowlds, who qualifed together for the 2016 U.S. Amateur Four-Ball.
