25th Ain't So Bad...
by Pat Sheridan on 05/17/15First- congrats goes to Brad Lebo for winning the 2015 USPMGA US Open with a score of 297 over the 8 rounds. He only managed to beat me by a measly 36 strokes. I would call that a success.

My second day ended up better than my first afternoon but not quite as good as my first morning. I ended with a 42 and a 40 in the last two rounds to finish with a 333 total and just barely squeak into a tie for 25th place and win a $100.

I failed to mention in my previous posts that we also had a trophy on the line for the best finish by a New England miniature golfer, there being 4 of us from CT playing. I fell short of that trophy as well with Justin Seymour taking the prize finishing with a 318.

While I wasn't too happy with my final scores, I did have a great time playing in the big tournament for the second year in a row. Unfortunately I won't be able to play in the 2015 USPMGA Masters but I've already marked my calendar for the 2016 US Open to be held at Putt U in Pennsylvania. I'm hoping that folks who have read this blog and have never played in a big tournament mark that one on your calendar too. We has just under 40 participants in this year's tournament and I'd really love to see a field of 50 or more for this major event.
Over the next couple of weeks we'll do a couple of wrap up posts from this tournament and then it will be time to turn our attention back to the full website for a bit. Great putting by everyone this weekend!
