21st Annual Palmetto Cup Matches

In the 2002 annual Palmetto Cup Matches between the amateurs and golf professionals of South Carolina, the amateurs fell behind in the first match and never threatened the rest of the way.

The end of round one, which is played in two man, selected drive, alternate shot format, found the amateurs trailing by a 12.5 – 14.5 score. The Dargan brothers were the only team for the amateurs to sweep their match. The senior team of Vic Hannon and Bob Stringer along with Jimmy Burgess and Lee Palms each earned 2.5 pts in their team match.

With 18 singles matches worth 3 points per match there was a glimmer of hope for the amateurs to play their way back into the game. That hope was short lived though, as the first two matches of the morning were lost to the professionals 0 to 3. The professionals went on to win 34.5 of the available 54 points in singles match play.

The series now stands at 12-7-1 in favor of the professionals. The 1997 matches were rained out while the 1986 matches ended in a tie.

The 2003 Palmetto Cup Matches will be conducted at the Daniel Island Club in Charleston, SC.
