⛳Big congrats to our bracket winners from last weekend at the Tee Golf National Tour: 2026 Missouri Open.
And a huge thank you to everyone who left it all on the trackball. You were a master class in grit and fun to watch.
Although there was a lot that went on i just wanted to give a shoutout to Luke Rataj for making his first cut and getting a win, Bill Keesee for knocking on the podium door but making a calcutta for the first time in the big boy bracket, and of course James Hickey for finally breaking that barrier and also making not only his first podium appearance but his first main bracket calcutta run.
Then there’s JD Hopwood. Got his first main bracket win ever and followed it up with an undefeated run all weekend taking the main event. And he did it with fewer than 4,850 total games played. That kind of run hasn't really happened on tour yet. (For context, last year he went 2-2 in the Pink bracket, which was basically his best Sunday to that point.)
Main Bracket Winner 🏆JD Hopwood O'Fallon, MO 6-0
Purple Bracket Winner (2x) 🥇Jamie Arrington University Place, WA 7-0
Pink Bracket winner 🏅Chris Ivens Lynnwood, WA 6-0
