The Open at High Meadow Ranch
Houston Amateur Players Tour paid a visit to High Meadow Ranch, a tour favorite in Magnolia, Texas. The weather was partly cloudy, with a slight breeze and by far the warmest tournament of the year. The course was in good shape and ready to take on all competitors.
D1: Mark Young started with 3 birdies in the first 6 holes to take a two-shot lead heading to the back nine 34(-2). New guest Colton Roberts with a 4-birdie effort trailed close behind at even par. Mark started hole ten with a 4th birdie and slowly pulled away shooting even par on the back and winning with a sub-par round of 70(-2). Jarod Marusic finished second with 77(+5).
D2: James Michalsky took the early lead with a birdie on hole #2 finishing the first nine with a 39(+3), two strokes ahead of Troy White, who shot 41(+5). James’s birdie on hole 10 paved the path to his 2nd win of the year shooting 78(+6).
D3: Division 3 was the second largest Division in the tournament. Ryan Burnaman, with a birdie on hole #4, shot 41(+5) on the front. Gary Josephson was one shot back with a 42(+6). There is a saying that all good things come in threes. Gary put together 7 pars out of the last 9 holes to take his 3rd win in a row shooting 80(+8).
D4: The largest group of the day had a battle across state lines. Georgia member Curtis Baugh and New York member Michael Repoli both shot 45(+9) with Carolina Ackerman trailing by one with 46(+10) at the turn. This contest was close to the end but a birdie on 18 by Carolina put her in a tie with Curtis Baugh both shooting 88(+16). A scorecard playoff gave Carolina the win.
D5: Tyler Warren came out on fire with seven straight pars to shoot a 42(+6) on the first 9 holes. Ray Gonzales was 4 shots back with a 46(+10). Anthony Vespa was making a move on holes 10 through 15, but Tyler’s lead was too much, and he ended the chase by finishing with a 93(+21) for his first win.
The Senior Net winner was Gary Josephson with a score of even par (72). Carolina Ackerman took 2nd with 73(+1) and Curtis Baugh took 3rd with a 75(+3).
