What is the Captain’s Cup?

The Utah Golf Association’s annual Captain’s Cup features the best senior and super-senior players in Utah. Two teams square off in a Ryder Cup-style match. Teams are chosen by the top-two players on the Senior Player Performance Rankings who serve as captains. Their teammates are the top 10 seniors and the top four super-seniors on the Senior Player Performance Rankings.

This year’s competition was held at Jeremy Ranch Golf & Country Club and included morning matches, lunch and afternoon four-ball and singles matches. 

Team McMillan started the competition off strong winning three of the four matches and finishing with a nine to three (points) victory in the alternate shot portion of the event. Team captain Shane McMillan and partner Jon Rhodes earned 3 points to increase the lead. 

In the afternoon, Team Gibbs took control of the four-ball portion winning 6.5 to 5.5. The matches went all square at two wins per team. Team McMillan took the points in the singles match portion ending in a 28.5 to 18.5 final victory for Team McMillan.

The UGA thanks Jeremy Ranch Golf & Country Club for hosting the event.
