Howie Tiger

Peter Estelle and Doug Stevens were the overall winners of the 2025 PebbleCreek Men’s Golf Association (PCMGA) 28th annual MemberGuest tournament. The tourney was held on April 23, 24, and 25 playing the East and West courses at Tuscany Falls. One hundred and eight 2-man teams competed in a match play format.

There were three flights within each of the six divisions. Over the three days, teams played against each of the other five teams in their respective flights. A point was awarded for each hole won. An additional point was also awarded for winning the match. Highest number of accumulated points for all five matches wins their flight.

A playoff process using an alternate shot format determined the division winners as well as overall winners. Initially, the three flight-winning teams in each division competed in a two-hole shootout on the front nine of the West course. The winning team from each division then advanced to the finals to compete in a three-hole shootout on the 9th hole to determine the overall winner.

The 9th green (West course) was surrounded by spectators eager to see the division winners compete in the pressure packed finals. The following teams competed: Vogt/Karish (A), Estelle/Stevens (B), Bowley/Mitchell (C), Bridges/Price (D), Maier/Hernandes (E), and Dingman/Cypert (F).

The first hole of the finals (#9 West) played as a par 4. One player from each team teed off from the same tee color as their other matches (blue, white, or red). The Vogt/Karish team was eliminated as they failed to score a 4/net 4 or better like the other five teams. The Bowley/Mitchell and Dingman/Cypert scored a net 3 and moved on. That left three teams to chip-off. The Maier/Fernandes lost the chip-off and were eliminated.

The second hole of the finals was played from a distance of 150 yards. The Bridges/Price team was eliminated as they failed to score a 3 and the Bowley/Mitchell team lost the chip-off.

The Estelle/Stevens team faced the Dingman/Cypert team on the final playoff hole played from a distance of 80 yards. Both teams made a 3 on the first go round. So, they played it again. Estelle hit a great shot just behind the hole and the team made a 3. The Dingman/Cypert failed to make a 3, so the Estelle/Stevens team are the overall winners!

Congratulations to all the flight winners and especially Peter and Doug! Many thanks to the pro shop staff and all the volunteers for all their hard work.
