We begin our weekly tour of the links with two reports of golfing greatness.

• Bravo to Carlos Alamon who jarred his shot on the par-3 fifth at Eagle-Vail July 13th. He used a 7-iron to record his ace.

• Kudos as well to Geirge Telepas who aced Vail's tricky 15th.with a sand wedge Tuesday.

We, thew local golfers of Eagle County, stand in muted awe of your achievements.
