Blue Nearly Runs Table on Sunday for its Biggest Win Ever

October 6, 2024

Blue won the Concord Cup 14 1/2 to 7 1/2, after trailing Saturday morning 3-2.

Tom Bres had three historically superior teams that all lost on Saturday, as Blue captain Will Bass reversed a long-term trend of Blue Foursomes failure. Blue won 4-1 in the afternoon Saturday.

On Sunday, Blue clinched the Cup by winning five and tying one of the first six matches, and then continued to dominate the day.

Of nine matches that went to the 18th hole, Blue won five and Red won only one, with three ties.

The course played firm and difficult in beautiful weather. There was only one pasting, and while there were no jackpot triple 7's, there were a few stretches between seven and nine that were worse.

Blue breaks Red's two-year winning streak, but Red has still won five of the last eight, and Blue has still won 8 of the last thirteen.
