KevinSmith’sSunday67 keepsClubChampionship inthefamilyanotheryear

Kevin Smith’s 67 round Sunday gave him a five-shot win over his dad Lee and Jeffrey Davis to capture his first Club Championship in the Championship Flight. It tied his best round on the Club’s revamped course and allowed Kevin – in a sense – to join his family.

Brother Brian won the last two and Lee the one before that. And last year, Kevin just missed a playoff that Brian won over Lee. “I took a bit of friendly grief. A little bit of a hard time – the only Smith who hadn’t won one. That’s not the case anymore. It’s good to ‘join’ the family I was already part of, but looking in from the outside in this aspect,” Kevin said.

But his win was not a sure thing
