Great Feats in Golf
This past Sunday, Paul Day won the Dayton City Stroke Play Championship with a Course Record 62 on the 7174 Yard, Eagle Course at Kittyhawk, breaking the course record of 63 set by Mike Dempsey.  

Some highlights from Paul's Second Round.  He made 4 pars and an eagle on Hole 2 to start is round, then turned it on, birdieing 9 of his next 10 holes, standing on #16 Tee at 11 under par before he parred #16 & #18 with the only blemish being a bogey on the 150 yard par 3 17th.

Congratulations Paul on the Win and such a STRONG Round...

Many sports have a history of statistics ardently followed by their fans. In baseball, there’re league pennants, World Series victories, pitchers’ ERA, most hits and on and on. Football and basketball have their own stats which fans can quote in any bar in the country.
