A legendary chapter was written in Shootout history as George Les captured a record-setting sixth Invitational Shootout title—this time with his grandson, also named George Les. The dynamic duo carded a blistering 63 (-9) to top the leaderboard and leave a legacy so long, it might need its own cart.
“This kid’s got ice in his veins and a backswing smoother than mine in ’03,” quipped the elder Les, polishing the trophy. “I told him before we teed off, ‘You just focus on bombing drives and making putts—I’ll handle the intimidation.’”
The win at the 2025 Invitational Shootout marks Les’ third different partner championship pairing, adding George Jr. to a hall-of-fame list that includes Dominic Dallio and Paul Manolitsis.

As the sun set over George W. Dunne, fans and players alike buzzed about the next chapter. One thing’s for sure: the Shootout isn’t just a tournament—it’s a legacy factory.
