QBE Shootout In Naples Sees Storm Knock Out Manual Scoreboard

A storm that began late Friday "knocked down the manual scoreboard on the 18th hole" at Tiburón Golf Club in Naples, Fla., which is hosting the QBE Shootout. Tournament Dir Rob Hartman said, "It will not be going back up." However, the "huge videoboard next to it was still operational." Weather also "caused the cancellation" of an event that would have featured tournament host Greg Norman and a "couple of pros in the field after the second round."

Meanwhile, Hartman was "happy with the event's first foray into having a concert," as the Ben Allen Band "played for three hours" on Friday night. Hartman: "A concert will certainly become a staple on our tournament week schedule moving forward" (NAPLES DAILY NEWS, 12/10).
