Jim Durr of Silver Lake has all but sewn up the Senior Division, Zach Mandry of Solon now leads the Championship Division by a single shot, and Tim Skufca of Lakewood and defending champ Brian Smith of Amherst top the Mid-Ams after two rounds of the 2017 Northeast Ohio Amateur Championship at StoneWater Golf Club in Highland Heights.
Hot weather, fast play and fast greens were the themes of Sunday, as players jockeyed for position in the 54-hole championship.
Durr added a 71 in Sunday’s second round to his first round score of 68, and now leads the Senior Division by a whopping nine shots. But Durr is staying in the present with one more round to play at Stonewater Golf Club in Highland Heights. “The course was in great shape and the greens were rolling fast,” said Durr. “It was great to end with a birdie today after finishing the first 18 with a bogey. But there is a lot of golf yet to be played.”
Zach Mandry (pictured right) offset a triple-bogey 7 on the fifth hole with birdies at holes 11, 14 and 18 to shoot even par 71 Sunday and finish his two rounds at 4-over par 146 total. Mandry leads by one shot over CSU Viking Blake Prince from East Liverpool, who posted a 1-over par 72 on Sunday.
Tim Skufca and Brian Smith are tied for first place in the Mid-Am Division after two rounds, at 150. Rick Areddy III is another shot behind in third, Nick Fiori sits fourth at 152, and first round leader Rob Schustrich is another stroke back at 153. Should be a barn-burner Mid-Am finish.
The third and final round of the 2017 Northeast Ohio Am will be played Monday at StoneWater.
