This week’s state tournaments took us across the state from Zephyrhills to Deerfield Beach to Leesburg to Bradenton. The race for the Masters is heating up in both the men’s and ladies’ divisions. With their second win this season at Betmar, John Houghtaling and Gary McGaffey are now both in the top eight in points on the men’s side. With her win at Century Village Debbie Norton is sneaking up on Terri Smith for second in points, and Pauline Murphy moves up to a tie for sixth place with her second place finish at Betmar.
