PING Rewards Concludes after an Exciting Day at Golf House Tennessee



 
The stakes were high for the top 34 Ping Reward recipients who gathered at Golf House Tennessee to play The Little Course. Competitions for the day included closest to the hole on all nine par 3’s worth $400 and $750 going to the low Professional, $500 going to second place and $250 going to third. Capping off a stealer 2011 season Audie Johnson from Lebanon Country Club came in first place with a score of 25. Finishing in second place from Vanderbilt Legends Club was Patrick Jackson. In third place was a five way tie all with a score of 27. These five players took it to the putting green to duke it out with a long 35 foot putt to determine the third place finisher.. While everyone putted the other contestants had their back to the hole so they could not get any information on the line, they could just hear the roar of the crowd as the ball inched closer and closer until they finally erupted after Kass Kovalcheck also from Vanderbilt Legends Club finished closest to the hole.
