The team of Matt Driffill (left in green) and Shane Driffill (center with yellow beanie) tied Joey Mortillaro (right with backward cap) and Josh Valletta (back left with white beanie) for the win. Brandon Moynihan (back center with dreads) did not win that day, but is always a winner with an all-time fun meter.
This was back when there was no tie breakers or handicaps and no one really knew what we were doing. Josh showed up on hole three. Formative times. Mortillaro sank a miracle birdie putt on 17 to push for the tie in one of the more dramatic moments in Tour history. This picture was taken several months later at one of the Big 5’s famous conferences.
