   2006 Champ Nate Doss has overtaken Climo by four shots going into Sarurday's semi final round. Climo blew up with a 65 and Doss scored a 58 in the 5th round. Kenny came back and cut the 6 stroke lead to 4 in the 6th round.
 Here's the top 7:

 Doss -58
 Climo -54
 A.Jenkins -53
 J Mcray Jr -51
 Matt Orum -48
 W. Haney -48
 M.Moser -47
 B Schultz -47
 Only 18 holes left to geta spot in the final 4 for Sunday. I'd like to see Doss Climo, Orum and Schultz (like last year)
 
  Des Does Augusta.....Well
 
 She now holds an 8 shot lead, the only lady under par going into semis.

 In Masters, Joel Kelly is leading last year's Champ Dean Tannock by 1 shot while perrenial champ Brad Hammock is in 5th, with one more round to make the final 4.
 Gary Gregory dropped to 52nd in the Division.
 Doug Crea is in 12th, while Blighton is now 25th and Bevins 42nd in G-Masters
 J Palmeri is 11th in SR G-Masters.
 
 Come on Climo! Show Nate you are STILL the man.
 Go Des, you'll catch Julianna and Elaine for a 5th World title (when you win NEXT YEAR also).
 Barry- time for a "Barry" round to launch into the finals.
 Hey Legends- Time for a new champion now that Ted left us after 5 World Titles.
 Masters- Could be Joel's year. He was in the finals last year and lost to Dean.
 Locals- Come on Doug, break into the top ten, looks like you made the cut to semis.
 Congratulations!!!

Ken wins number 12 by 5 over Nate, Des wins number 3, and Hammock wins masters. Don't know any others yet.

  YESSS! Kenny proves that the best of all time is also the best right now!
  Jim, make room for some 12- time Champion plastic for your collection.
  Looks like a lot of former and current World Champs have struck again.
 Brad Hammock with a true comeback to get into the finals and win by ONE at the end. He's won I think 6 times now in Masters.
 Des does it again for 2 in a row and 4 overall, one shy of the ladies record.
 Shive has won umpteen in a row in Sr G-Masters but only won by 2 shots this year.
 Nice job Doug Corea making Cash in 11th for $450. Doug Blighton also made the cut and the cash line at $150.
 Jim Palmeri made it to the semis and ended up 10th but missed the $ .
 Bevins came in 42TH, beating 11 players, including the legendary Stork!
 Rick and Sykvia Voakes will each enjoy being World Champion this year. The "World Champion Couple!"
  Seemed like a great, competetive(4 divisions were decided by 2 shots or less)Worlds.
 Congratulations to the BEST OF ALL TIME- Ken Climo
 He reached pentheon status long ago yet continues to add to his legacy. He's Tiger.
 He's Wilt, and Gretzky..and..Ali....all in one. Not to be duplicated in our lifetime,
   simply, THE MAN.
