Will Ferrell introduces Jupiter Links and New York

Fans in attendance got some laughs ahead of Tuesday’s match. Actor Will Ferrell introduced the players for both teams, plus the player who would be coaching up Jupiter Links from the bench.

“Some guy named Tiger,” Ferrell said. “Who’s that? Does anyone know? Nevermind.”

Jupiter Links strikes first

Even from the bench, Tiger Woods found a way to get in a hammer throw.

Jupiter Links got an early advantage on Hole 1, after Fowler hit a drive into the bunker for New York. Meanwhile, Jupiter Links found themselves just under eight feet from the hole after two shots. So, Woods threw the hammer, which New York declined, giving Jupiter Links a 1-0 lead.

Young narrowly misses from 125 yards out

Young nearly put the team on his back on Hole 4. After New York hit the ball into the penalty area on its second shot, which lead to a 1-stroke penalty for the team, Young was just inches away from giving his team a chance to tie the hole from 125 yards away. His shot bounced off the flagpole, allowing Jupiter Links to win the hole and earn a point.

Fowler seals the win for New York

With one last chance to close the gap on New York’s 6-3 lead, Jupiter Links threw the hammer ahead of Hole 13 to make it worth two points. The pressure was no problem for Fowler, however, as he sank a 14-foot putt on his third shot to secure the win for NYGC.
