• GOLF
Jon Haid captured his fourth ‘Little Man’ in seven attempts this year to write his name in the record books for the most number of multiple wins in a calendar year. In the early days, 1992-1996, the trophy was played for each and every Thursday. Thus the inscription on the trophy, ‘Thursday Champion’. Who is to say that Jon will not set a record for wins in a year that will stand for eternity given that he still has five more opportunities to add to his total?
