2020 CLASSIC CHAMPS Wilson Sebastian & Billy George

CRAZY FINISH TO 2020 CLASIC The 2020 classic got off to a rainy start but it ended with fireworks. 96 players took to the field in this year's 2020 Classic and it didn't disappoint. After the completion of round Five, eight teams headed off number one to compete in the prominent Idle Hour shoot-out. As all the members and their guests teed off on number, a huge crowd followed right behind them all the way down number one Fairway. After the first hole, we narrowed the field down to two teams; John Barlow and Michael Barlow moving on to compete against Wilson Sebastian and his partner, Billy George. The stage was set and these two teams would battle it out on hole number 18 to see who clamin victory in the 2020 classic.

Wilson Sebastian was on the right side of the fairway  230 yards out. After a a few practice swings he then proceeded to hit his 3-wood in what were some rainy and windy conditions. From the moment it left the face, it was tracking all over the flag.  As the ball landed on the green, it took one bounce and landed straight in the hole for an ALBATROSS!! to propel Wilson Sebastian and Billy George to the victory. An incredible finish that will go down in the history books.
