21st Annual Cup Matches
The 21st Annual Cup Matches concluded today at Trappers Turn in Wisconsin Dells, WI. This annual event showcases 12 boys and 12 girls from Wisconsin against Team Minnesota in a Ryder Cup team-type event that started back in 1998. Team MN led 8 to 4 after day one of four ball matches. Team Minnesota held onto win 12.5 points in singles matches to keep the cup for the third consecutive year. The final point total was 20.5-15.5 for Team Minnesota. Team Wisconsin still leads the overall series at 12-9-1.
The Junior Foundation would also like to thank some people for making this event great. A big thank you to the sales reps that donated tee gifts to each player. Thanks to Ted Robbins and Tom Cranwell for donating Titleist golf balls, gloves and hats, Ron McPherson from Antigua for donating the team golf shirts each day, and Ron Hurab for donating an RJ Shepherd umbrella and Devant towel to each player. These guys make this event a great experience for all players.
