SPLIT DECISION

SPLIT DECISION

Split by the draft. Reunited in the history books. Brian and Dan are back-to-back champions — with Ryder Cup tickets to boot.

Coming off a championship together in 2025, Brian and Dan entered a very different Tees Nuts landscape in 2026. A new two-tier system and a fresh draft meant the defending champions would no longer be sharing a roster.

For the rest of the league, that should have been good news.

Brian put together an impressive individual campaign, leading his team with a +4 net hole differential while topping his tier with 30 holes won across singles and scramble play. He also tied for second in the league with two comeback victories, proving he was just as dangerous playing from behind.

Meanwhile, Dan helped guide his new squad to championship glory, contributing wins in both singles and scramble competition. His balanced 1–1 record in each format was part of another successful title run, proving that championship success doesn't always require eye-popping individual numbers.

What began as a shared title defense turned into two separate championship celebrations. Different rosters, different tiers, and another year at the top for both.

And the story isn't over. Both are headed to the 2026 Ryder Cup — Brian earning his spot through qualification and Dan getting the call as a captain's pick. Two different paths to another opportunity on one of Tees Nuts' biggest stages.

The league split them up. Winning brought them right back together.

UP IN SMOKE
Controversy

UP IN SMOKE

A blown lead. A suspicious offer. Four Nuts gone missing. Did the Competitive Tier title slip away at Elmridge?

See Scorecard

Some losses sting. Others come back to haunt you six events later.

For Fairway Limited GC, the 2026 Competitive Tier championship may have started slipping away long before the final standings were posted. The scene of the alleged crime? Elmridge. Event 1.

Steve Carter and Greg Ballinger appeared to have things under control. Facing Shane Wilson and Brian Denelle of Bogey Nights GC, the Fairway Limited duo grabbed the lead on the second hole and held it through the 15th.

Then things got interesting.

Somewhere along the way, an alleged offer emerged from the Bogey Nights camp. Brian Denelle, according to clubhouse chatter, may have presented Greg with a pen hit too tempting to turn down.

Was it gamesmanship? Psychological warfare? An innocent exchange between consenting adults?

Shane Wilson offered a simple defense: "He's a grown man."

Fair enough. But grown men can make questionable decisions, too.

Whatever happened, Fairway Limited's comfortable afternoon unraveled. Bogey Nights clawed its way back and stole a 1UP victory, taking four precious Nuts that had looked destined for the other side.

THE NUMBERS MAKE IT WORSE.

Steve Carter would go on to finish atop the Competitive Tier individual standings with 140 Nuts. Greg Ballinger? Dead last, without a single Nut to his name.

One teammate at the summit. The other at the bottom. And somewhere in between, an Elmridge collapse that nobody seems willing to forget.

Meanwhile, Shane and Brian remained among the tier's top individual performers, helping Bogey Nights GC capture the season championship with 26 Nuts.

Fairway Limited mounted a late-season comeback of its own, but ultimately finished with 21.

Five Nuts separated the two teams.

And those four Nuts that slipped away at Elmridge? They wouldn't have guaranteed Fairway Limited a championship. But they certainly would have changed the conversation heading into the final event.

Was it the pressure? The putts? Or one particularly persuasive offer?

We'll leave that to the league investigators.

Case remains open.

CARTER SUPREMACY SETTLED

The Carter debate is officially settled — and somehow, they’re all headed to the Ryder Cup.

Steve Carter entered the final event with more than just Fairways Limited pride on the line. Across the fairway was Brian Carter, playing for a Whack F#*! GC team with a chance to claim the title.
Steve got the better of Brian, helping slam the door on Whack F#*! GC’s championship hopes — and, more importantly, settling the question nobody knew needed answering: Who is the best Carter?

Accountability Remains Elusive
Culture

Accountability Remains Elusive

League officials are investigating why grown men remain unable to commit to a golf event in advance.

Despite possessing mortgages, careers, children, and in some cases supervisory responsibilities, several league members continue to demonstrate an inability to answer one of life's more difficult questions:

“Are you playing?”

Officials initially believed the issue was scheduling.

That theory was abandoned after affected members were observed successfully using their phones for fantasy sports, group chats, and sending videos nobody asked for.

League leadership is now considering several solutions, including assigned chaperones, a buddy system, and simply asking everyone's wives directly.

No timetable has been provided for accountability.

Problem Solved. Probably.
Culture

Problem Solved. Probably.

After several unexplained disappearances, a permanent solution has been deployed.

Following enough disappearances to qualify as a missing persons case, one league member permanently tethered his vape pen to a lanyard.

Early testing indicates the prototype performed flawlessly.

League officials are optimistic the device will significantly reduce future donations to Rhode Island golf courses.

Handicap Parking Approved
Culture

Handicap Parking Approved

The league's two highest handicaps met Saturday in what officials have described as a "fully accessible matchup."

Witnesses reported an unusually high concentration of birdies, confident iron shots, and unsolicited swing advice.

The match was completed without incident, though several members questioned whether either player should be allowed to park that close to the first tee.

The match has since been referred to internally as The Battle of the Disabilities.

League Leadership To Be Reevaluated

Another rain forecast has emerged. Several members have questions.

Following the last event, the Commissioner reportedly received:

• "Lose my number."

• "I'm buying you a Farmer's Almanac next year."

• "If it rains again, I'm kicking you in the dick."

League officials continue to insist that weather cannot be scheduled.

Several members remain unconvinced.

The Commissioner's future remains uncertain.

As conditions deteriorate, members are reminded to follow the league's established Rain Golf Rules:

• If one guy says "it's only a passing shower," he is now responsible for all weather forecasting for the remainder of the round.

• "We're already wet" becomes the official answer to every weather-related question.

• Richmond Monson remains the league's official benchmark for terrible golfing conditions. Few events have come close.

• At least one player must announce he owns rain gear and then proceed not to bring it.

• The Commissioner is personally responsible for all rain, wind, mud, cart path puddles, and lost golf balls.
