COLUMBUS, OH — Tom Fowble posted 57 points Saturday for his second round of the year to move in the middle of the Summer Open Leaderboard.

OlaFowble had an incredible four holes during his round at Woodland Golf Club in Cable, OH.  A bogey on #9, par on #10, double-bogey on #11, and bogey on #12 which gave him 25 points.  The unique NOOG format awards players such as Tom for aggressive play and he took advantage.

OlaFowble played only one round of golf this season where he shot a disaster 138 without losing a ball.  ?I lost a ball or two this time, but just played much better.?  He added, ?That Brinker guy is good.  Please change his nickname to Butch.  He really helped me mentally and physically with my swing.?

OlaFowble excited about his back-nine start, did not finish well, scoring 5 points in the remaining 5 holes.  OlaFowble is expected to play a little more this fall in preparation to play the Open in April.
