An incredible tournament with three
players tied for the lead in regulation and MillerLight
only one shot back.To win the playoff, Bomber birdied 8
holes and had 1 eagle to see off Bub, who fell at the 5th
and JimDog who managed a 9 hole birdie run which left him
one shot shy of yet another title. The win was Bomber's
first on the 2000 tour and earned him over half a million
dollars. The tournament was also noteworthy for the
strong performance of the British players who took up 5
of the top 10 slots at Harbour Town. Highlight of the
week for Bomber was a 176 yard hole in one in windy, hard
and fast conditions that set him on his way to a second
round 59. |
In the other tiers, DogLeg notched another impressive victory in the Masters tier, while World Pro Rankings administrator (and KISS tour supremo) Chris Gormley won the pro class event. Canada's consistent Brian Looney (Golfer) won at amateur and young Jamie Watkins recorded a memorable triumph in the club event. |
