  • Ron Arnst's HMG Course Collection Summaries
    HISTORY MAKER GOLF Championship Golf Game • Course Summaries Course Collection ONE Blackjack GC, Las Vegas NV / based on TPC SUMMERLIN TPC Summerlin’s layout, carved from a magnificent swath of rugged desert terrain by renowned golf course architect Bobby Weed, provides a good reference for the Blackjack GC. TPC Summerlin’s lush bentgrass greens, numerous water features and an abundance of pine trees all contrast dramatically with undisturbed desert washes. The course features four closing holes that deliver top flight golf drama. The final charge begins with the par 4, 15th hole – a drivable par 4 that will temp most players. If the tee shot misses the green, an “up and down” birdie is possible, but not easy, due to the severely elevated and undulated green – which is surrounded by five bunkers that regularly attract stray tee shots. The 16th hole is a relatively downhill par-5 that is reachable with two good shots. The green is guarded by water short of the green, and bunkers beyond. Only a mid-iron will be necessary for the second shot, with a birdie almost a certainty. A challenging and un-nerving par-3, the 17th hole plays downhill with the green guarded closely by a lake on the left and by bunkers on the right. Par is good score and birdies are rare, should players need to make up ground. The 18th is a well-designed and strategic finishing hole which moves right to left off the tee. The green is protected on the left by a lake. An aggressive tee shot with the driver can leave the player just a short iron to a very deep green from front to back.

It makes you feel good that you’ve got some value out of your life and what you’ve done.” MIKE CLEGG 1938-2021 Northeast Ohio Keeping families close® Ronald McDonald House Charities® of Northeast Ohio 42ND ANNUAL PRO-AM GOLF TOURNAMENT Presented by Truline Industries The Ronald McDonald House® Pro-Am Tournament is the longest-running and most successful fundraising event in the history of the Ronald McDonald House of Cleveland, now Ronald McDonald House Charities of Northeast Ohio. This event helps RMHC NEO enhance the healthcare experience for thousands of families and children each year through comfort, care and supportive services. Our sincere thanks to our generous sponsors. PRESENTING SPONSOR UNDERWRITING SPONSORS www.RMHCneo.org Make a difference with us today. Dear Friends, Today is a special day because of a special man. Mike Clegg touched so many lives with his love of life, devotion to family and friends, and of course…his passion for the Ronald McDonald House. Mike’s passion, and now his legacy, was born out of a challenging time in 1977 when his young son, Scotty, was battling leukemia. It was a time when this special man was quoted as saying “No family should go through this.” Scotty eventually beat leukemia, but Mike knew there were still plenty of families battling similar life- changing challenges.

H3T 2AT [email protected] The Burden of Glory: Competing for Non-monetary Incentives in Rank-order Tournaments Abstract In an environment in which elite, highly-paid professionals compete for non-monetary rewards, we find evidence of underperformance. Our analysis suggests that choking under pressure from high-stakes non-monetary rewards is behind the underperformance. This implies that high stakes non-monetary rewards can create meaningful pressure on individuals and lead to worse performance, a distinct issue that has yet to be adequately examined. These findings come from an examination of the behavior of top US golfers competing to earn a place on the US Ryder Cup team via their performance in PGA Tour tournaments with differing allocations of Ryder Cup qualifying points. Keywords: Competition, non-monetary incentives, high stakes, choking, performance, risk-taking, intimidation The Burden of Glory: Competing for Non-monetary Incentives in Rank-order Tournaments Abstract: In an environment in which elite, highly-paid professionals compete for non- monetary rewards, we find evidence of underperformance.
