JOE LEADS AFTER 1st ROUND
Defending champion Tim Joe is off to a hot start for the 2nd edition of the South Bay Challenge after carding a 36 at the Lakes at El Segundo. He and Chris Moawad tied for the day’s low gross (36). Joe carded a round-1 high 5 pars. Walter Vargas, the only golfer Sunday to record any birdies (8th hole), stands to win the birdie pool if he maintains the birdie lead at Manhattan Beach. Doug Vargas made his South Bay Challenge debut after missing last season’s inaugural edition. The tournament concludes on the 26th with the final 2 rounds at Westdrift Golf (formerly Manhattan Beach).
