Urbana Country Club Golf Tournament Results

At Urbana Country Club we had 26 golfers come to play in our 8th event of the year. The event had perfect weather and saw several good scores on a Dye Family design golf course that was setup extremely difficult.

In Division 1 newcomer Ty Schobelock came out quick birdieing his first hole in the Amateur Players Tour. Ty then finished the front nine a little slower with 43 but then shot a very steady 38 on the back highlighted by 7 pars. Ty’s 81 was 2 shots clear of Kip Gray who finished in 2nd. This was Ty’s first win in his first tournament.

In Division 2 Nicklaus Lyons got his second Amateur Players Tour win with an impressive 76. Nick shot 39 on the front nine highlighted by an eagle at the par 5 8th. Nick would then make two bogeys and a birdie on the back to shoot 37 and 76 overall. Nick also grabbed the closest to the pin on the 15th hole. Chris Harris shot 82 for 2nd place and posted 2nd place in Senior Net.

In Division 3 Michael Bruesch, Ryan Nicholson, and Adam Kohler were around the lead all day. Michael made birdie on the 11th hole which was one of his last of the day and then held on for the win. Michael shot 43 on the front and then was steady on the difficult back posting 42 for the winning score of 85.
