The weather held off for us this year making for a beautiful weekend here at Marquette Park Golf Course!
The first round had some great scores out there but none better than Jim Kennedy who posted a pair of 34’s for a first round score of 4-under, 68. Not only did Kennedy circle six birdies on the card in Saturday’s round, but he also was only two strokes away from scoring his age! Now if that’s not impressive, then I don’t know what is. Chuck Cherney and Kim Dong followed up Kennedy’s round with scores of 2-over 74, giving themselves a chance to catch him on Sunday.
The final round this morning started off rather gloomy and even brought in some mild rain and mist. The sun finally showed itself turning the day into a miraculous one for golf. There were a total of THREE eagles on the day and even better scores. Ray Lee and Jim Zartman bounced back with 1-over rounds of 73, while Chuck Cherney posted his second 74 of the tournament. In the end, no one bested Jim Kennedy who posted a final round score of 1-under 71 to shoot a total of 5-under-par, 139 for the tournament earning himself the crown of the 2015 Senior Amateur Champion! Congratulations Jim!
