2026 winner Thomas Kelly (left) is pictured with Silver Creek Golf Club head pro Jonathan Shuskey (right) after the conclusion of the club’s two-day, 36-hole Papa Bristol tournament on July 12. The event, which is held annually in memory of club founders Papa and Mama Bristol, utilizes a modified stableford scoring format with handicaps, in which players attempt to gain points by beating their average scores. Kelly finished with eight points on day one and four points on day two for 12 total as one of just five golfers in the 31-player field to finish with a positive point total. Kelly Farr (six points) was runner-up, and James Pittman (three points) finished in third place. This year’s tournament featured only an individual division for competition, with no team portion.
