course during a tournament Crawford Chevrolet a Santa Fe car dealership offered the truck to anyone who accomplished such a feat on the ninth hole of the course Now Crawford wants the truck back or payment for it by a company that sold Crawford an Insurance policy covering the firm just in case someone did accomplish the unlikely shot The crux of the issue is this How do you count to nine Or 18 A court might have to decide that Crawford Chevrolet has filed a lawsuit in Santa Fe District Court against Zamora the Texas company that sells Quail Run and its golf professional Zamora who was competing in the Santa Fe Beautiful benefit tournament at Quail Run on July 9 got his on the ninth hole However it was his second time around the course during the 18hole tournament The insurance

Everhart president of National said the company had insured hole number nine and not hole number 18 We dont mind paying if a hole is insured A should be a great Everhart said But the 18th hole was not insured The ninth hole Zamora differs j There are only nine holes at Quail he said That makes the ninth hole hole number nine 1 just did what I was told to do 1 didnt lie I didnt deceive anyone I got
