The Coors Light 2-Person Scramble went Saturday and Sunday at Deer Park Golf Course. They had close to a full limit of golfers take part in the two-day tournament, says Allan Sauser, head pro at Deer Park.

They enjoyed some pretty favourable weather conditions.

Players made the trip to Yorkton from all over Saskatchewan including Prince Albert, Eston, Humboldt and then from various parts of Albert including Red Deer and Calgary.

"It was a nice sized group," comments Sauser regarding the number of golfers he welcomed out.

Among the big winners on the day in the Championship Flite, were the two-man team of Mel Oystryck and Dale Skibinsky. They posted a two-day total of 130 (65 on day one and 65 on the second day of the course).

Coming in second place was Cody Bowtell and Cliff Trombley with scores of 64 and 67; two day total of 131.

In the 1st Flite, Chris Burton and Curtis Spelay came out on top with a two-day score of 133 ( 70 on day one and 63 on day two).

Coming in second place in the same Flite were Chancey Heiser and Gord Kennedy, who combined for a 135 (69 on day one and 66 on day two).

The second Flite winners were Brent Dergousoff and Cathy Inglis. They shot 140; 73 on day one and 67 on day two.

The runners-up was the team of Brad Woychesko and TK Ayers who shot a 142 (72 on day one and 70 on day two).

In the third Flite, Grant Weyland and Kris Klimosko teamed up for a 145 (74 on day one and 71 on day two).

Derrick Furber and Janet McElligett came in three shots behind for second place with a 142 (72 on day one and 70 on day two).

The fourth Flite winners were Bill Larson and Bob Lee with 153 (79 on day one and 74 on day two); Brent Peterson and Brent Oliphant came in five strokes behind with 158 (81 on day one and 77 on day).

Sauser said the course is getting back to where it should be in terms of field conditions following the horrendous rain storms that came on Canada Day, noting that one of the holes was completely submerged in water.

"We're a week or so away," he said about getting all water removed from the course, but also added that tournaments "generally go rain or shine."
