Great summertime weather and no rain provided perfect course conditions for this year’s Manakiki Championship and 2015 Greater Cleveland Amateur Championship qualifier.
Going into the final round, just 2 shots separated veteran players Steve Blackburn Jr., Dave Sotka, and the youngster Chandler Walnsch.
In the end, it was Walnsch with a closing 34 on the back nine to take the victory by two shots from the CMG veterans.
Those scoring 159 and better made the cut into the 2015 Cleveland Am, to be held at Manakiki August 7-9th.
