Shane Ash nabbed his second consecutive Championship Golf Association victory, taking the top spot at the stroke play event at Sugarbush GC in Garrettsville on yet another windy day.
Ash posted a 1-over par 73 to beat Brian Smith and Scott Heran by a single stroke. Smith birdied 16 and 17 (posting a great back nine score of 34) to tie Ash to that point, while Heran eagled the 17th to take the outright lead. But Ash birdied the 18th hole to win, while Heran made bogey and Smith made par.
The next CGA event is the Modified Stableford points event, scheduled for an early morning start on Sunday, June 22 at The Quarry in North Canton. To register, visit the CGA website or call 216-556-0219.
