Cometh the hour, cometh the big smooth man, Justin Smedley removes any semblance of drama and ruins everyone's fun by winning both the final two weeks for his 5th and 6th wins of the season. To be fair he's done it in some style, beating WGR1 Bradley Garcia in Week 31 and finishing 7 clear of the field in Week 32 after a ridiculous -20 at Orion's Gate, very well done Justin
. For Bradley it's his 17th visit to our podium, amazing considering he only played 18 weeks of the season!
John Glenwood takes a top 3 for the 11th time in Week 31 alongside Griffin Ray who had a prolific finish after joining us fairly late on. Anders Bergstrøm gets himself a second best round tag this season on his way to being our top PGA player in 6th, just ahead of our Pro Champion
mousepotato Russ Price (PS4), and Web player
ENAGC18 Wes Howell (PS4) also gets himself in the top 10 in 9th. Russ and Wes are two players who have been regularly tagged all season long, obviously something about the RRCC seems to bring the best out of them! Top Euro player was
merseyred Stuart Millest (PC) in 11th.
In Week 32 it was Justin's rival for the overall crown who took his 9th top 3 finish in 2nd place, Steven Garrity winning a deserving and fitting final podium finish of the season. In 3rd place and earning a first tag of the entire season was me, top PGA player for the week, what a time to do it
! Seriously, pretty happy with that, Erin Hills is my new favourite course
. Also a first tag for a best round for Randy Cleveland at Royal St Iona, joining me in the 'better late than never' group! Euro player
dgforelife Andrew Leopard (PS4) made the top 10 in 6th place as well as Web player
stoneysooner Robyn Stone (PS4) in 9th.

Week 31 saw the already mentioned Wes Howell take his 4th win at this level of the season and interrupting Robyn Stone's run of victories. Robyn finishes 5 shots behind him in 2nd with David Andrews enjoying some more good designs for his second top 3 finish in this tournament. It was a Web 1-2-3 with the top CC players being our newest player Art Vandelay and RRCC stalwart
stewarty5 Charlie Stewart (PS4) in a share of 4th. I think Art has just beaten me and Randy to the 'better late than never' prize!
Week 32 then saw Robyn Stone resume his recent dominance at this level with his 5th win of the season, 4 shots ahead of Stephen Doherty who takes a 3rd podium. Art Vandelay goes one better and rounds off our final ProAm podium of the season in 3rd after a nice round at Erin Hills.

Justin Smedley finishes the season in some style earning the highest tournament points total by anyone all year to win his 3rd tournament out of the 8 we've played. Almost 140 points behind but still in an excellent 2nd place is Steve Dikens who started the season in the Challenge Circuit but has since worked his way up to the World Tour and takes a second RRCC tournament top 3. Steven Garrity won the Can't Hit Straight Cup last time out, and takes his 4th top 3 tournament finish here in 3rd place. Top PGA player was..... me again
in 5th, and top Euro player was Andrew Leopard in 7th.
Similarly dominant performance in the ProAm with Robyn Stone taking 3 out of the 4 weekly wins to take his 3rd tournament at this level, no one else has managed more than one. My late night Xbox playing partners Stephen Doherty and David Andrews earn their first ProAm tournament podium finishes in 2nd and 3rd. The best CC player was, as usual, Charlie Stewart in 5th.
So with that all done it's time to crown our overall champion for Season 4 of the RRCC. It was extremely tight coming in to these last two weeks with just 2 points separating Justin Smedley and Steven Garrity but some almost perfect scoring has seen Justin take away any semblance of suspense and race to the title at a gallop. Very well done Justin, you're a deserving and worthy Champion

So it's official, your RRCC Season 4 Champion is
Mr. Justin SmedleyConsistently good play all season sees Steven Garrity as a worthy runner up, and the same for John Glenwood in 3rd. The 3 of them are the only players to top 2000 points on the season, congrats to all 3. The ProAm season-long leaderboard is a bit of a funny one with all the comings and goings, but there's no doubt that Charlie Stewart is consistently one of the best players in the Challenge Circuit and he wins the ProAm title for the second year in a row. About time you got your arse in to the Web isn't is Charlie?
Wes Howell takes the runner up spot and very nice to see another RRCC stalwart, Rick Green finish in 3rd.
So that's it, thanks as always to everybody who played. We hope that everybody has enjoyed Season 4 of the RRCC and all things being well we'll hopefully see a lot of you again for Season 5 on TGC2019. Till the next time......
