In a dramatic change of events, the perennial trophy winner Randy “Fancy” Harris was shut out of the final non sequitur trophy contest of 2007. A mysterious competitor from the East named John Hizer was victorious on the last day of 2007.
Hizer pressured a broken Mike Davis up to the 18th green. Davis, who lead the match at the turn by a stroke over Harris and 6 strokes over Hizer, showed signs of fatigue after weeks of being demoralized at the hands of Fancy's superior play. The crowds at Crooked Tree Golf Course have grown accustomed to the high level of play from Harris and Davis over the remaining contests of the 2007 schedule.
Comparisons to Jack and Arnie were made early in the season, starting when Davis improved his putting stroke and was able to control his powerful drives. Patience was the most valuable club in the bag during this three way tug-of-war for supremacy as Davis and Hizer waited for Harris to defeat himself. While Harris and Hizer had never competed before this match, word of Fancy's struggles with Crooked Tree's 15th hole had obviously proceeded him. Harris managed to bring the water into play on every shot on 15, including on the putting surface, as he put three balls into the drink and carded a 12, thus ending his chances of taking home the coveted prize.
In a truly ironic twist Mike D's putting abandoned him on the putting green as he met the younger, better looking Hizer for a tie breaking putt off. Davis was praised weeks earlier for his improved putting stroke only to see it forsake him with the coveted non sequitur prize on the line.
