Scott Estes and Kasey Vens Win Detroit Invitational
December 12, 2016
Birmingham, MI
The Detroit invitational saw its largest NRT/Viking PCQ draw in quite some time. Teams came from Long Island, NY, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland as well as the Michigan and the Great Detroit area. The paddle hut was complete with chili, beer and other treats as the spectators enjoyed watching a top flight championship. The finals saw Scott Estes and Kasey Vens defeating Scott Mansager and Brian Compton 7-6, 4-6, 6-3.
Friday, the 90+ was hosted at Oakland Hills Country Club. The team of John Oswald and Stephen Phillips from Toledo, Ohio defeated Rich Carron and Rich Moellering from Grosse Pointe, Michigan in the finals.
A big thank you to Orchard Lake Country Club, Birmingham Athletic Club and Oakland Hills Country Club for assisting with the event. Looking forward to seeing familiar faces as well as new participants again next year!
