Michigan PGA Member and Western Michigan golf head coach Kim Moore finished as the runner up at the 2024 U.S. Adaptive Open at Sand Creek Station Golf Course.
Moore finished at 228 (+12) with a pair of 75’s book-ending a second round of 78. Bailey Bish won the tournament with a 224 (+8), but was pushed by Moore after Bish opened the tournament with a six-stroke lead after the first round.
This is the third time that Moore has competed in the U.S. Adaptive Open, a championship that showcases the world’s best golfers with disabilities, and the third time she has finished in the top two. She won the first-ever tournament back in 2022 and finished second in 2023. Moore was born without a right foot and a slight case of spina bifida.
Moore will be back in action at The Cairns Cup, Disability Golf’s premiere match play tournament that pits the United States against Europe. The Cairns Cup takes place July 27-Aug. 3 at Cherry Creek Golf Club in Detroit, Michigan.
