Sunday A.M. Results:
Match 25
Karl Vogelsang vs Gord Aronec
Captain’s duties finally take toll
Gord won this one 2 and 1. It was his first victory over any golfer named Carl/Karl and he was ecstatic.
Match 26
Mike Masters vs Aiden O’Brien
Mike Makes Everything
At 1 over par after 13, not many would have stood a chance in this one. Aidan was mastered 6 and 5.
Match 27
Brad Borgstrom vs Troy Richardson
Boomer Bombs Richardson
The former Canadian captain was on his game and outlasted Troy 2 and 1.
Match 28
Len Sovak vs Barry Mitchell
Senior Putter Captain Muffles Mitchell
Congrats to Barry for the going the distance 3 and 2 against Mr. Consistency.
Match 29
Dave Puhach vs Fred Butler
The Butler Won It
With no strokes given this was pure mano-a-mano. One up Europe attests to the accuracy of the handicaps.
Match 30
Bob Ramsay vs Ed Rasmussen
Ramsay Rocks Rasmussen
Who said techs spend all their time in dark rooms looking at screens. It’s true if it has either the golf channel or chipping tips. Canada 4 and 3.
Match 31
Terry Stastook vs Chad Kenwood
Canada wins in talkfest
Neither could get a word in edgewise so Stastook concentrated on getting it in the hole. Canada 3 up.
Match 32
Carl Teplitski vs Joe Pare
Experience Trumps Exuberance
Joe was game but again the wily vet could not be denied. Knowing every roll on the green, blade of grass and grain of sand has its advantages. Canada 2 up.
Match 33
Ken Thompson vs Dave Hogg
Thompson Hogties Hogg
Dave was spent from his net 66 yesterday and Ken hadn’t used up any of his great shots. Canada 7 and 5.
Match 34
Don Wilgosh vs Peter Wheddon
Battle of the Power Faders
Neither faded in the long run but Peter outpowered Don 2 and 1.
Match 35
Bob Massey vs Brian Connelly
Connelly Conquers Massey
Ten strokes to Brian proved too much for Bob to overcome. But it was close with Europe 1 up.
Match 36
Dennis Wray vs Brian Lemon
Wray Adds Sugar
This was a sweet win for the Canadian who gave away two strokes but came up with a 3 and 2 victory.

Sunday P.M. Matches
Match 37
Rod Fletcher vs Gary King
Rod who?
Peppy and Gary, two of the most improved golfers on each team, went head to head and halved.
Match 38
Dave Todoruk vs Tony McRedmond
Champ Triumphant
They don’t call him the Champ for nothing. And he was perfect on this day winning 5 and 4.
Match 39
Tom Bale vs Paul Saranchuk
Drugs Anyone?
With an aching back and system full of narcotics, Bale bested Saranchuk 3 and 2. Paul sought judicial intervention for drug testing but was denied.
Match 40
Les Duncan vs John Braun
Reversal of Fortune
John turned the tables on Canada and became the dogtagger instead of the dogtaggee. Europe 7 and 6.
Match 41
Bob Fallis vs Pat McAvoy
It’s nice when a game comes together...
And it did for Bob. Drives flew effortlessly, irons bit judiciously and putts dropped perfectly. Canada 5 and 4.
Match 42
Rodger Spelmer vs Stew Duncan
Spelmer Skewered by Duncan
A steady Stew beat a sporadic Spelmer 2 and 1.
Match 43
Gary Bowles vs Brad Smith
Pitbull bites Goliath
Goliath’s thunderbolt drives and towering irons did not dissuade a pugnacious Bowles.
Great match halved.
Match 44
Wayne Harrison vs Darryl Manchulenko
Bomber versus the Barber
On paper this one looks like a cakewalk. However, someone forgot to tell Wayne who hung in with an all-round game to halve with Darryl.
Match 45
Graham Kinley vs John Wasney
Not another...
How good a job did the captains do in matching players? This was the fourth afternoon match that ended in a halve.
Match 46
Blair Wizniak vs Dennis Prystayko
Again...
These two must enjoy playing against each other because it’s an annual event. Blair bests Dennis 3 and 2.
Match 47
Henk Denboer vs Donnelle Loewen
Seesaw Match
After 3 quick birdies it looked like Henk had this one won. By the back nine it was even and ended 1 up Canada.
Match 48
Mike Tibbs vs Tony Wattman
Just one question...
Exactly what is a -1 handicap and why aren’t you on the tour? Seems that didn’t bother Tony who beat Mike 1 up.
