Fore! “Now on the tee is Tracy Ericksen!” bellows Whiskey Jacques’ starter John Corrigan, left, as Ericksen exhibits good golf form and attire during Saturday’s Ketchum Wide Open. The miniature-golf event attracted more than 300 participants to 11 participating bars. Whiskey’s hole, on one of its two new upstairs decks, was voted the best hole of the tournament. Team Kaiser Soce won with a two-member combined score of 40. Photo by Willy Cook
