Despite trailing by three shots entering Sunday’s final round at The Lake Club, Youngstown State product Brandon Pluchinsky showed why he’s definitively become the king of Greatest Golfer. The North Lima native closed out the tournament with a 4-under 66 to come from behind and claim his fifth straight Greatest Golfer crown and seventh overall in the Men’s Open division.
Kiersten Klekner-Alt also pulled out a repeat performance in the Ladies Open division, successfully defending her title from last year.
