QUICK CHIPS:

20201121_144715Tourny first: Saturday’s sudden death finish was the first playoff in Tour Championship history… Crazy 8’s: The MGM Tour returned to action 8 (Covid-induced) months after its last tournament, the Charly Classic. Eric Stolz made his MGM Tour return, coming out of retirement 8 years after last playing… 2 up 2 down: Luke Wyatt became the first Tour rookie to win his first 2 starts… Leaders: Pars (6) Wyatt, followed by Quiroz (5); bogeys (11) W. Vargas, followed by Crump (7)… Records fall: Wyatt’s impressive 70-gross shattered the previous course record held by Armen Grigorian (77, 2016). His back-9 30 bettered the previous record (34) set by Chris Moawad in 2013. His 2 birdies also set a new course record. Walter Vargas set a new course record for bogeys (11)… Major accomplishment: Wyatt joins Chris Moawad as the only golfers to win their debut in a majorMasters-bound: Wyatt’s Tour Championship victory earns him a spot in next year’s Masters. Tweet-Tweet: And if Wyatt’s day couldn’t get any better, he took home the $9 birdie pot, adding an additional birdie for good measure… Covid-bump(?): 9 golfers emerged from Covid exile making 2020’s Tour Championship field the largest in 5 years (most since 13 golfers started in 2014)… Milestone: Walter Vargas’s next tournament will be the 100th of his career.
