Battle for the Ages
January 6, 2004
ROCKY MOUNT, NC — The Spackler Business Office today received a letter of intent from 2002 Al Cervic Outfit Winner and Captains Club CEO, Jamie Myers, who has been instrumental in the success of this ongoing major championship.
The 5-foot-8, 235-pound Myers did not lead the 2002 tournament even for one hole, but capitalized in Round 4 to place 17th. A native of Warren, PA, Myers almost won the Spackler Outfit, wasn?t it for great play on Saturday. Myers returned in 2003 and made a statement placing 10th in a field of 32. "Today marks the beginning of my personal quest to win this 2004 major championship. There will be no time for fun this offseason."
The Chairman of the Captains Club expressed his acceptance to the tournament by saying, "I am very happy that Myers will be joining the field this year. He is a fine student of hacking and a talented athlete who will add depth to our list of hackers."
Even Rick Dosky plans to come out of hiding upon hearing news of a "Myers return". "He is clearly one of the most respected players in the country. "He possesses quality skills complemented by extraordinary shot making and a tenacious work ethic. In addition, he has a great vision of the field with the potential to be an impact player in the Carl Spackler Open. Playing on a fast surface in Winston-Salem will promote his putting and chipping."
The Spackler Open is scheduled to begin on June 10, 2004.
