The back nine really does matter. And since Week 2 of the “Can You Beat Biggy?” Challenge, the back nine has been my bread and butter.

It needed to be once more on Aug. 8, when Stafford Mayor Greg Myhre and his neighbor, Stafford School District Board of Education President Walter Jauch, stopped by Sandbar Golf in Surf City, attempting to take me out.

“I asked Greg if he wanted to play and represent Stafford,” said Jauch, to that the mayor happily accepted.
