They got down to business instead, ripping off five straight points at holes 3-7 to go up 5-2. It marked the first time Jupiter had ever won more than two consecutive holes, and it was a total team effort \u2013 Bhatia, Homa and Kisner all made birdie putts and contributed to the scoring barrage.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Hammer Happy: Atlanta has been the top Hammer scoring team over the past two seasons, while Jupiter has been the worst. So it figures that Jupiter would beat Atlanta at its own game Monday, winning three crucial points via the Hammer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Atlanta earned three Hammer points as well, but they all came at the last hole when the match was already out of reach. A two-point swing for Jupiter at the 12th ultimately wrapped it up \u2013 Atlanta threw the Hammer before the tee shots and Kisner beat Horschel with a par to put Jupiter ahead 8-2.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Thomas Talks: Atlanta\u2019s Justin Thomas was step-for-step with his teammates Monday in a non-playing role. Rest assured, Jupiter was aware of his presence. Thomas is one of the best on a live mic and clearly had fun despite the loss. He was going back and forth with Kisner all night, targeting him with a late Hammer throw before tee shots were hit at No. 13. He wound up and threw the Hammer like a baseball pitcher for added effect, but Kisner had the last laugh when he beat Horschel to earn two points. Later in the match, Kisner asked JT for an update on Atlanta&#8217;s winning streak. \u201cSeven,\u201d Thomas replied, not sensing the trap he\u2019d walked into.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">\u201cWhat is it now?\u201d Kisner asked.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">\u201cZero,\u201d Thomas replied with a laugh.<\/p>\n<p>*:not(style){overflow:hidden;position:absolute;top:0px;right:0px;bottom:0px;left:0px;display:-webkit-box;display:-webkit-flex;display:-ms-flexbox;display:flex;-webkit-box-pack:center;-ms-flex-pack:center;-webkit-justify-content:center;justify-content:center;-webkit-align-items:center;-webkit-box-align:center;-ms-flex-align:center;align-items:center;width:100%;height:100%;}.css-17ygvlf>img,.css-17ygvlf>video{object-fit:cover;}.css-17ygvlf::before{height:0px;content:&#8221;&#8221;;display:block;padding-bottom:56.25%;}]]><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1770135729_737_image.jpg\" alt=\"Akshay Bhatia hits perfect approach on 'The Last Toll' at TGL\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;object-fit:cover\" loading=\"eager\" fetchpriority=\"high\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-1wnqtrr\">Akshay Bhatia hits perfect approach on &#8216;The Last Toll&#8217; at TGL<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Jupiter played its best Triples session by far after a slow start, overwhelming Atlanta down the stretch to take a 5-2 lead into Singles. It was the first time Jupiter had ever held the lead after Triples.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Trailing 2-0 through two, Jupiter broke free with a relentless stretch of golf to win five consecutive points and take a 5-2 lead through seven holes. It started at the par-3 third, where Kisner hit a perfect tee shot into the sloping backstop at &#8220;Cenote&#8221; to set up a birdie putt. Horschel\u2019s tee shot found the penalty area and Atlanta ultimately conceded as Jupiter cut the deficit to 2-1.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Jupiter then played Atlanta\u2019s Team Hole, &#8220;Fore-0-Fore&#8221;, to near-perfection, combining for a no-sweat birdie to win the hole and tie the match 2-2.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Homa fired another jab at the fifth, hitting his tee shot inside six feet at the par-3 &#8220;Oh Chute&#8221; to set up another birdie and another point.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Bhatia hit one of the best shots of the night at &#8220;The Plank&#8221;, the par-4 sixth, lofting a chip shot over a bunker on a short-sided approach to set up a four-footer for birdie. Homa made that to put Jupiter ahead 4-2.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Bhatia stepped up again to cap the run, hitting his tee shot inside five feet at the par-3, &#8220;The Last Toll.&#8221; Jupiter threw the Hammer and Atlanta declined to make it 5-2 and reach five points in a match for the first time in team history.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1770135729_737_image.jpg\" alt=\"Akshay Bhatia hits perfect approach on 'The Last Toll' at TGL\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;object-fit:cover\" loading=\"eager\" fetchpriority=\"high\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-1wnqtrr\">Akshay Bhatia hits perfect approach on &#8216;The Last Toll&#8217; at TGL<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Bhatia didn\u2019t shy away from the moment, leading off Singles with a three-point lead, making birdie at the par-5 &#8220;The Spear&#8221; to win a point over Gotterup and make it 6-2 Jupiter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Kisner added to the lead at the 13th with the Hammer in play. A mismatch on paper, Horschel is the best Singles player in the league with an 11-2-5 record. But Kisner has long been known as a bulldog in match play and stepped up to the challenge, earning two more points with a tap-in par to give Jupiter a commanding 8-2 lead.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Atlanta finally got back on the board at the 14th, with Glover narrowly missing an ace at the par-3 &#8220;On the Rocks&#8221; for a tap-in birdie and one point to make it 8-3.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Horschel then topped Kisner on the final hole with two Hammers in play for a three-point win to make it 8-6.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Atlanta Drive: \u201cAll three of them played really good tonight. There was no weak link.&#8221; &#8211; Billy Horschel said about Jupiter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family:Suisse Intl, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:1.7rem;line-height:2.6rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0rem;position:relative\">Jupiter Links Golf Club: \u201cWe\u2019re having fun.
