2026 Papa John’s Clear Creek Classic Recap

It was a long weekend of golf at Alpine Bay. We had 50 teams in the tournament. There was a threat of storms both days.  We were able to get the two days of golf completed without delay.

Saturday’s round was completed and a meal was provided for the golfers. We had a catfish plate with Cole slaw, baked beans and hushpuppies.  The meal was prepared by Bull Dog catering.  We had 5 flights in the tournament.  The Calcutta was held once everybody completed their meal and Saturday’s scores were recorded.

We had heavy rain during the Calcutta, later that night and again early Sunday morning.  The rain prevented the maintenance crew from working bunkers, cutting greens and moving pins for Sunday’s round.

Papa John’s provided pizza for all the golfers after Sunday’s round while the final results were being finalized.

In the Championship flight the team of James Otwell, Tanner Wilder and Noah Hathorn posted an overall total of 111 to claim the Clear Creek Championship. They posted a 57 on day one and a 54 on day 2. The 2^nd day 54 was also the low score in the Calcutta. The team of Ellison, Ellison and Boyles posted a 116 to win 2^nd in the tournament.
