While attempting to pay my electric bill with my replacement debit card which the site kept rejecting since it had the same number as the old one but with a different expiration date and code...
I got a text congratulating me on winning the disc golf 2023 Illinois Open Series Season championship in the MA50 division.
A look at the standings confirmed I won since I was the only player who played four of the seven events in MA50. However, this win is tainted.
Two of those four events I barely finished due to my right knee which has been an issue since May before it got worse in late July.
Had to miss the final event due to the knee and someone who had played three events 39 shots better than me over eight tournament rounds (7 in my group) switched from MA50 to MP50 in that final eveent as no one else registered. Had I been able to play, he wouldn't have switched and would have qualified.
I also know in the one IOS event I played that he didn't, he missed due to "life" and the only time I played a round better than he did among the ten we both were at was at the state championship when I played one of the best rounds of my life the week before the knee went real bad which is similar to what happened with me the week before my left leg gave out in my last ever bowling league against the best in Chicago in the summer of 1994.
I believe there is a season trophy involved which if I get will rightfully give it to him the next time I see him.
