The first-round matches got started last Saturday, after being rescheduled due to rain over the previous weekend.

Defending Champion, Dan McCarthy, John Taves, Ben Scott, and Tim McDonough all advanced to the semi-finals. Both Sunday semi-final matches were very close, with a winner not determined until the 18th hole. John Taves birdied the 16th and 17th holes to take a 1-up lead to the 18th over Dan McCarthy.

In the other semi-final match, Tim McDonough survived a see-saw battle with Ben Scott. With the match all even on the 18th tee, Tim squeaked out the win with a bogey.
