Palmer Flight – After six holes it didn't look like Roland Lewis of Tulsa, OK was going to be able to overcome a rough start. He finally settled down and and shot even par for the last 12 holes to pass by the three players ahead of him and win by four strokes. It's a course he likes and the conditions suited him well. Good putting and finding real trouble only once was his key to victory. Derek Goodson of Ft. Smith Arkansas placed second.
Sarazen Flight – Once again a steady finish proves to be the determining factor for a win. With six holes to play, John Hamilton of Hot Springs Village, AR led Jay Williams of Van Buren, AR by 3 strokes and Danny Neal of West Fork, AR by 2 strokes. However, Neal played the last 6 holes in just 3 over par allowing him to eek his way past both Williams and Hamilton. Neal stated that trying to stay steady and avoiding big numbers were key to his victory.
Jones Flight - In the final flight of the day, all cards but two had a double digit score except for two. Through 13 holes Patrick Emerson of Oletha, KS and Craig Merrill of Roland, AR were tied – when the double digits got to Emerson. Merrill played those last holes only two over par which gave him a comfortable victory over Emerson and over Vicki Lynch of Fort Smith, AR.
