Team Florida was represented by the following players: Hudson Swafford, Tallahassee 136 Tyson Alexander, Gainesville 136 Judson Eustaquio, Lake Worth 136 Sam Saunders, Orlando 137

BOB JONES TROPHY Southern States 4-Ball Championship sponsored by the SOUTHERN GOLF ASSOCIATION
ROBERT TYRE JONES, JR. Commemorating his career in Golf and the greatest record yet achieved in the competitive phases of the game, this trophy is dedicated to ROBERT TYRE JONES, JR.
Who was reared in and played from Atlanta, Georgia, and who in the space of fifteen years, from 1916 through 1930, played in thirty-one major championships of the United States and Great Britain, and retired at the age of 28 with this list of victories:
UNITED STATES AMATEUR, 1924, 1925, 1927, 1928, 1930 UNITED STATES OPEN, 1923, 1926, 1929, 1930 BRITISH OPEN, 1926, 1927, 1930 BRITISH AMATEUR, 1930
Additionally, he won the first Georgia State Amateur Championship in 1916 at the age of 14; won the Southern Amateur Championship in 1917. 1920, and 1922; and played as a member of the United States Walker Cup Team in 1922, 1924, 1926, 1928 and 1930, being captain in the last two meetings, and never losing a match at singles.
At his retirement from competitive Golf in 1930 his status as First Official World Champion was assured by his winning in that year the British Amateur, the British Open, the United States Open and the United States Amateur Championships, known as the Grand Slam, and thus entrench- ing his record safely and forever within the Impregnable Quadrilateral of Golf.

The Board of Directors of the Southern Golf Association accepted responsibility for conducting the International Four-Ball Championship in 2003 and began doing so in 2004, under the title Southern International Four-Ball Championship. This idea was first presented to the Board by John McKey, Jr., past President of the SGA and long-time Board member, who had sin- gularly conducted this venerable championship for 25 years. It was Mr. McKey's desire to turn the reins over to the Southern to ensure the future of this 70 year old, nationally prominent championship. The list of previous winners reads like a who's-who of championship golf and the SGA is currently working on a complete list of those champions. The Championship is comprised of two divisions, Mid-Amateur and Senior, and is 72 holes of Four-Ball Stroke Play. The 2004 Champions were the Mid-Amateur team of Jeff Knox, Augusta, Georgia and Steve Johnson, Signal Mountain, Tennessee and the Senior team of William Boles of Wilson, North Carolina and Marty West, Bethesda, Maryland.
Bulldog Pair Unseat Kuehne-Green in Southern International Four-Ball
Larry Guest, Orlando, Fla
PALM CITY, FL. — A pair of former Mississippi State golf teammates passed defending champs Trip Kuehne and Danny Green in the closing holes Sunday to win the 74th Southern International Four-Ball at The Fox Club. Down by two at the start of the day, Tyler Crawford and Clay Homan pulled even with the defending champs with three holes to play, then took the lead on Crawford's birdie on the 17th and closed out a two-shot win with a par from Homan, the only player in the foursome to dodge the lake on the dogleg finishing hole. Homan, now the golf coach at State, played his second shot safe right of the green after his partner and both Kuehne and Greene found the water. He wedged to the fringe some 20 feet from the hole and got down in two for the clinching par 5 and his team's winning total of 22-under-par 196 in the featured Mid-Am division. "They played great and deserved to win," said Kuehne, of Irving, Tex, who won the U.S. Mid-Am title in October. "When you putt like I did down the stretch, you don't deserve to win." He missed birdie putts inside 10 feet on two of the four closing holes. In the Senior division, tour pro agent Bob Morris and partner Mike Kelly came from three off the pace with a final 64 to win by a shot over John Benson and Don Erickson. Former U.S. Amateur champ Vinny Giles and partner Jim Holtgrieve failed to fire in the final round and finished four back.

HALL OF FAME
The Southern Golf Association Hall of Fame was established in 1972 by the Board of Directors of the Southern Golf Association. The following qualifications were established as criteria for nomination of an inductee, but an inductee does not have to meet every single criteria. The candidate must have: 1) Outstanding competitive career; 2) Outstanding administra- tive contributions; 3) Outstanding promotional contributions; 4) The candidate must have met the above criteria while a mem- ber of a Southern Golf Association Member Club.
The first Hall of Fame inductee was, appropriately, Robert Tyre Jones, Jr. The award was made posthumously in July, 1972 at the 1972 Southern Amateur Championship held at the Green Island Country Club in Columbus, Georgia.

In this, its 33rd year, there have been 20 inductees with 13 years of no inductions This, in effect, makes it even more of an honor to be a member of the Southern Golf Association Hall of Fame.
SIMON BOLIVAR CUP
The Simon Bolivar Cup was inaugurated by the Venezuelan Golf Federation to provide an outstanding contest of golf and to establish bonds between Venezuela and other countries through golf. It is staged in honor of Simon Bolivar, the great lib- erator of Venezuela, Columbia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia. At first the cup was intended to include only the Bolivian coun- tries and "Mother" Spain. As the years passed, however, the importance and scope of this biennial Cup competition grew beyond Bolivian borders to include most all of the great golf playing countries around the world.
The Southern Golf Association, sponsor of the U.S. team, accepted its initial invitation in 1983 and has seen the American flag raised last in the opening ceremony and lowered last in closing, a privilege issued to the defending champion and cur- rent champion respectively, seven out of the nine times it has played in the tournament. Again, the entire U.S. contingent was in awe of the hospitality of the Venezuelan Golf Federation and the high standards throughout the event. We of the Southern Golf Association salute all of the Venezuelan people and federation members involved in the operation of this great international golf tournament.

Due to the tragic events of September 11, 2001, and the subsequent focus by terrorists groups on American citizens, the Board of Directors of the SGA elected not to participate in the 2001 Simon Bolivar Cup matches and put our team and cap- tain at risk. We will resume participation in 2005.
