Team Masley enjoyed a triumphant return to Grand Cypress and remains undefeated in Orlando. Team Lambert's valiant comeback attempt on Sunday fell short, but not quite as short as Cookie's memory of this entire weekend...

Team Lambert broke out of a two-year slump and regained the Queso Cup in a hotly contested battle that came down to the final matches on Sunday. Rain was dodged and many long-time cuppers revealed that they'd be better off sticking to bowling.

 'Caddies' were present for the first and last time in Queso Cup history.... Michigan's punter would have rather been golfing in Orlando.... and in the largest event in Queso Cup history, Team Masley made it two in a row.

Team Lambert just enjoyed our time in the trees. Based on Team Masley's record in Northern Michigan, it may be a while before the tournament selection committee votes for a return visit.

Team Lambert with an unprecendented third straight Victory. Highlight of the weekend was watching Rich Pierle hit himself with his opening tee shot on Saturday morning and then go on to par the final hole to win his match - you won't see this anywhere but the Queso Cup. Great weekend, better golf courses and a fantastic group of guys. Thanks to everyone for making the trip! (and no, Lawson is not gay).

WHERE IS ZANKO?

ZANKO IS WHERE?

We're pretty sure this wasn't how the west was won, but it will have to do.

Team Lambert (with very little aid from their captain) dominated Team Masley in Queso Cup 10 - Duel in the Desert. No doubt there were highlights but your web master is way behind and far too old to remember any of them. I do remember it was on the warm side and that Masley made it to dinner on Saturday night.

2010 - Team Masley Back on Top

All Lambert could say was "It felt good not to get shut out." Team Masley in a romp. Great courses, good weather and poor golf made it another fantastic event.

Congratulations to Team Masley on their convincing 2010 Queso Cup victory!

Avenging their embarrassing defeat of 2009, Team Masley took no prisoners in this year's tussle at Treetops. Jumping out to a commanding 4 1/2 to 1/2 lead after Friday afternoon's opening round, Masley's motley crew never let their foot off of the accelerator, motoring to a 18 to 7 victory and ownership of the Cup for the coming year.

2009 - Team Lambert in a Win for the Aged.

After 8 consecutive years of finishing second, Team Lambert pummelled Team Masley with no mercy to be seen or heard (okay, let's face it, we were at least a million miles from the next nearest human being when in Lewiston). The only lasting memory of 2009 was the tournament committe instituting a rule that all future Q-Cup locations would require some form of telephone reception.

For the second consecutive year, the outcome of the Queso Cup was not determined until the final two matches headed up the 18th fairway. With a strong finish, Team South held it's slim lead and secured ownership of the Queso Cup (both of them) for another year.

Team North got off to a blistering start winning its the first 4 matches of the day to take an early lead. But true to character, Team South battled back and when the love-bugs settled, went home with a 20 1/2 to 17 1/2 victory.

Outstanding performers for Team North included Rob Cornell (4-0-0) and Keith Beaucamp (3-0-1). Rob has been awarded the first annual Robert O'Neal Award for both his play and the fact that he's the man, and Robert would have appreciated his efforts. Rich Pierle also was a strong contributor for Team North with his first 2 wins ever.

Team South, in a huge surprise to everyone, was led by emergency backup captain Mark Toon who ran his Captain's record to 2-0 with a 5-0-0 performance. Dan Matzat was awesome all weekend and finished with a 4-0-1 record.

Barton Creek - In the closest finish in Queso Cup History, Team South/West prevailed in Sunday's singles matches to take a 1 point victory and retain the coveted Queso Cup. Team North/East put up a good fight but in the end, the home field heat was the difference. Congrats to Team South/West for a tremendous weekend of play.

2006 Queso Cup - The Year in Review (Abridged)

Team West won, Team East stunk, the rough on Sunday morning was memorable, shirts were on sale, no one was killed (according to 'official' tournament records)....

More importantly, we raised just short of $1,000 through strictly voluntary contributions to our selected charity for the year - Winifred Masterson Burke Rehabilitation Hospital. Many thanks to everyone who took part in this important initiative.
