We had another exciting day at the Fortress in Frankenmuth, MI as they hosted the Midwest Golf & Turf Pro Am presented by VGM Financial on Monday, July 17th. With the help of our sponsors the 54 teams of two were competing for a purse of $9,000. The players competed in a best ball format for a gross and net division.
The gross division was won by the Pro-Am team of Brian Cairns, from Fox Hills Learning Center and his Amateur partner Jimmy Dales, making them back-to-back champions as they won this division last year as well. They finished at -7 under par ,65, which was good enough for a one-shot victory over four teams at -6 under including host Assistant professional Nick Sears from The Fortress and his amateur partner Aaron Meyer from VGM Financial. Jimmy Dales is in his Junior year at the University of Wyoming and has qualified for and will be competing in the 123rd U.S. Amateur Championship to be played at Cherry Hills Country Club in Cherry Hills Village, Colo., and Colorado Golf Club in Parker, Colo., on Aug. 14-20, 2023.
The net division had more of an interesting day ending in a 1-hole playoff. Teams Tim Pearce, from Birmingham Country Club and Scott Pearce, the 2021 Champions, fell to the team of professional Ryan Lenahan, from Kendall Academy and his Amateur partner Jerred Barley. Lenahan / Barley won the first playoff hole with a birdie to secure their victory. Both teams ended the rounds shooting 8 under par, 64.
Once again, we would like to thank everyone for coming and participating in this event. We would also like to thank The Fortress and the Host Professional, Kyle Martin and also a big thank you to Scott Sabgash the Superintendent and all of his staff.
Finally, we would like to thank our title sponsor Midwest Golf & Turf for making this event possible. We appreciate your support for this event but also for a lot of events that you make happen. We would also like to thank our presenting sponsor VGM Financial. Lastly, we would also like to thank Zehnders for making the day even better with their famously known barbeque chicken lunch to conclude the day.
