Alameda Commuters: Scarff, Ellis lead at 6-under
ALAMEDA, Calif. (April 19, 2009) -- Scoring was a little more difficult in the second round of the Alameda Commuters due to the hard, fast greens and difficult pin placements. But as players hawked over the scoreboard, the "number" was still one of the lowest in the event's rich 82 year history (144 or 2 over par).  Co-medalists Christopher Ellis and Reid Scarff paced the field at 138 (6-under-par) with 8 players within 3 shots of the lead.

Second round results from the Alameda Commuters, played at the Earl Fry North and Jack Clark South courses at the Chuck Corica Golf Complex follow. The final 36-holes of this 72-hole tournament, as well as the 36-hole Alameda Commuters Senior Championship will be contested on April 25 & 26.

ABOUT THE Alameda Commuters

What's in a name? In the case of the Alameda Commuters Championship, the logo of the almost 100 year old tournament would be a dead giveaway. It's a steam ferry, which was the only way to "commute" to San Francisco from the East Bay before the Bay Bridge was built. Started as an informal event -- the original first prize was a bag of nails -- the tournament has grown into one of the top independent events in California.

A dedicated tournament committee prides itself on running the two weekend, 72-hole competition as if it were a PGA Tour event. Two of the best public courses at the city-owned Chuck Corica Golf Complex are prepared with care. Slick greens, Sunday pins, and even that rarity in amateur golf – spectators are all part of the fun. The roped-off scoreboard is a particular area of pride for the "green jackets" who were wearing dark green blazers before they were made popular by another tournament you might be aware of in Augusta Georgia. The 250 player championship division is cut to 50 and ties for the second weekend, at which time the 36-hole senior division tees off to join them.
