The LGA celebrated the arrival of the month of June with an official event at La Madeleine. Playing on the Le Presidentiel 18, the
league's top players (and Paul Hornsby III) fought it out, with the sole rightie Costa Doinbiznis emerging once again as the
victor, this time by three over Hale Erwin Norman. Doinbiznis appeared to be in trouble early, after opening with a 9 on the par-4
1st hole, but as we all know by now, in the LGA, no lead is big enough, especially when 'The Biz' is in the field. Costa also
managed a nine coming in, on the par-5 15th, but he won anyway. As for Norman, after scoring par on the first two holes, it was
mostly downhill. Norman rarely puts together two consecutive nines over 50, but succeeeded in that endeavour today, for the
first time since June 12th of last year. Dr. Mario Blondin took third place, but was also disappointed with his triple digit
performance (104). Mario's only par of the day on the par-5 6th came immediately following a 10 (hurl!!!) on the par-4 5th,
cancelling out the par and then some. All three of these performances, however mediocre, were still better than that of Paul
Hornsby III, whose 111 was his fourth straight round in triple digits, and his second straight over 110. After walking away from
hole number nine a bit discouraged with his 57 front, Hornsby crushed a drive down the middle on 10, only to subsequently put
three balls into the lake guarding the green. Hornsby would score an 11, the number of ones required to mark that number
serving as a harbinger of what would be his day's destiny, a score containing nothing but ones.
