After very careful deliberations and much speculation, the
executive committee of Clark Brothers Tournament Golf has named the Captain’s
for the upcoming 2002 Blue and Gold competition. Taking charge of the defending
champion Blue side will be tournament veteran and low handicapper Dr. Willie
Ross. Dr. Ross is a very well respected tournament member (a rarity) and has
played in nine Invitationals. With his low handicap of six, he is usually
counted on to carry quite a load around the course on Saturday, and this weight
has unfortunately keep him out of the winner’s circle. On Friday, he always
tackles the best the Gold can throw out, and this has led to extremely close
match play competitions against the likes of Frank Gleason and Bruce Flint. Dr.
Ross will be counted on to carry on the success the Blue side has enjoyed in
this competition. Dr. Ross resides in Oakland, California.
To
represent the Gold side, with the urgent task to reclaim the trophy and restore
the balance of power between the two groups, another very well respected
tournament insider was chosen. Don Zaremba (also a Dr. I might add but with very
questionable certification), a thirteen tournament veteran and CBI champion at
Aptos in 2000 has accepted the challenge and will lead the Gold side into
battle. Dr. Z. is a tenacious competitor, who recently underwent knee surgery
for the sole reason to better prepare himself for the two 2002 tournaments. Don
is admired by his fellow teammates for his relentless work ethic, dry sense of
humor and hollow leg, one that he has very capably shown at numerous past
events. Don resides in Phoenix, Arizona.
The 7th Annual Blue and Gold Cup will be contested
on Friday, August 9th, at the Poppy Ridge Golf Course in Livermore,
California. First tee time is 11:00 a.m. The Blue side leads the series 4-2. The
away team has won the last five competitions.
