This past weekend, 96 players competed at the Bear Trace at Tims Ford in Winchester. Total prize pool just over $3,700 and side games totaling close to $2,200. The course, which recently renovated, was a great test for the players and produced 3 on-course playoffs to determine division champions.
In Division 1, Murfreesboro’s Craig Young posted 4 birdies and no bogeys to shoot a round of 4-under 67 to win by two strokes over Burns’ Matt Mitchell, which also posted an under-par round of 2-under 69.
In Division 2, a two-hole playoff decided the winner in this competition. Murfreesboro’s Micheal Lynn and Fayetteville’s Jerry Ferguson ended their rounds tied with 5-over rounds of 76. Ferguson outlasted Lynn on the 2nd hole of the playoff to capture his 1st win on the APT. Columbia’s Will Norman takes the 3rd place position with a round of 8-over 79. Two players finished at 10-over 81 and a 4th place tie: Nashville’s Chris Bernosky and Hendersonville’s Sonny Beachy.
In Division 3, we had our largest competition of 32 players. Murfreesboro’s Marcel Sow edged out a number of players with his one-stroke victory. Sow posted a round of 9-over 80.
