The Gordon’s Gin Golf League kicked off the 2018 season Tuesday at the Belle View Golf and Country Club. Rookies Bunny and Little Bird joined veterans May Day, Cribzee, Stevo and the Seal Lion in the Pro Am.
Pairings were:
May Day – Bill Murray
Stevo – Igor Larionov
Sea Lion – Craig Stadler (the Walrus)
Little Bird – Big Bird
Bunny – Michel Larocque
Cribzee – David Clarke
It was a little wet out there but the boys found a way to grind through it much to the fans delight. “It was an honor to be out here with pros like Stevo and the Sea Lion”, said Little Bird.
“Little Bird and I shared the limo over from the airport”, said Bunny after arriving from California where the pair played in a fund raiser hosted by Michael J Fox.
The celebrities really enjoyed the finely manicured gold course. “You guys really have a good thing out here”, said Sherif Clarke. “President Trump would love it out here”.
The Sea Lion’s personal assistant, Sara, made sure the golfers had hot coffee and tea. The sea Lion likes his Caesar’s made a certain way and Sara has been fully trained and the Sea Lion is raring’ to go this golf season.
Stevo built a bon fire for cold fans on the 15th hole and the league provided marshmallows for the kids in attendance and shots of honey bourbon for the adults.
Scores were Cribzee – 71, Little Bird – 72 – Stevo 74, May Day 81, Sea Lion – 70, and Bunny with an impressive 68.
The league will be going back to Monday’s commencing April 30. Watch for the e-mail. Respond quickly because tour spots are quickly filling up.
