Facing windy conditions and a tough course, the golfers in the NOGA Great Lakes Auto Scratch Series Stroke Play #1 at Mayfield Country Club all recorded over par rounds.
The rain held off for the most part but the wind was strong and consistent throughout, making the beautiful Mayfield Country Club play harder than normal with its elevated tees, rolling fairways and small greens.
Fairlawn resident Shaun Kloetzer (NOHIO.GOLF Club) won the Open Division with his 1-over par round of 72.
“I feel like every round we are playing nowadays, we are playing with 15 to 20 mile per hour winds, which can be frustrating,” Kloetzer said. “But we’re used to it by now. I hit my driver as good as I have ever hit my driver. Every fairway I hit, I hit with my driver which made it a lot easier.”
“I really wish I would have got up and down on 18 for birdie to get back to even but overall I am very, very happy with my round,” Kloetzer added.
Trevor Cohen (Quail Hollow Country Club) finished in a tie for second place with Zach Glassman (NOHIO. GOLF Club) with a 2-over round. Cohen finished his round with an eagle on the 18th hole. Jack Garswood (NOHIO.GOLF Club) and Jeff Blechschmidt (Mayfield Sand Ridge) finished tied for fourth at 3-over par.
In the Senior Division, Silver Lakes’ Mark Borlin finished in the top spot, recording a 3-over par round of 74, even with bogeys on two of the final three holes.
“The round started off kind of poorly, I was 3-over after five holes,” Borlin said. “I righted the ship and played well. Made birdies on 13 and 14 then stumbled coming in with bogeys on 16 and 17. But I just tried to grind it out.”
Brian Sparrow (Canterbury Golf Club) and Dean Cutlip (Firestone Country Club) finished tied for second place with rounds of 4-over. David Trier (Silver Lake Country Club) and Mark Guadagni (Silver Lake Country Club) finished tied for fourth place with rounds of 5-over.
In the Super Senior Division, Tyson Terry (Toledo Metro Golf Association) finished in first place with a 4-over par round of 75 and Mike Brady (Sweetbriar Golf Club) finished in solo second place.
The next NOGA Great Lakes Auto Scratch Series event will be the Stroke Play #2 at Quail Hollow Country Club on June 16.
