The start of a runaway? Hardly. The start of a barrage of birdies and eagles that lit up the score- card – and which is not uncommon in the Radix, where the elite players of the Illinois PGA Section and the amateur ranks, overseen by the Chicago District Golf Association, annually gather. Malm, the 2000 Illinois Open winner, would answer quickly with a 20-foot birdie putt on the par-3 second. He’d add birdies on the third and fourth, the latter trumped by current Illinois Open champion Cooke’s 18-foot eagle putt on the 478- yard par 5. Each side was 3-under in the best-ball com- petition after four holes. The match, the first of six on the June 6 card, was all square. And the fun was just beginning.
