Westminster, CO – The final round of the Colorado Senior PGA Professional Championship certainly did not disappoint! With the final back nine being an intense back-and-forth battle between Micah Rudosky, PGA Conquistador Golf Course, Barry Milstead, PGA Valley Country Club, Ron Vlosich, PGA Life Member and Doug Rohrbaugh, PGA Snowmass Club. Rudosky walked off 18 green with his first Colorado Senior PGA Professional Championship title. The Head Professional from Conquistador Golf Course posted back-to-back fiveunder-par rounds of 66 to take home the title of the 2021 Colorado Senior PGA Professional Championship on Tuesday, August 3, 2021. Rudosky was sharp throughout the day, carding 6 birdies and an eagle on hole 12. This win will take Rudosky back to the Senior PGA Professional Championship, set to be played in Florida later this fall, for a back-to-back appearance in the Championship.

“I felt pretty confident going into round two, but you’ve got a lot of guys right in the area, so you can’t back off, because you won’t make it to the next stage, so it was a little stressful. I felt like if I just played my game, I’m going to have a chance to go to Florida for that Senior PGA Championship,” Rudosky noted after the round. Rudosky had a strong field to battle against to claim his victory, as both Ron Vlosich, PGA and Doug Rohrbaugh, PGA, both previous Colorado Senior PGA Professional Champions, stayed close behind, tying for second, and both posting 66 for their second round. One of his closest competitors, entering the day also tied for first, was Barry Milstead, PGA: “I had one bad hole, plain and simple.” Milstead headed to the 12 tee-box with a onestroke lead but was unable to bounce back after his first shot took him out of bounds on the left side of the fairway, ultimately leading to card a triple-bogey. In all, 12 players finished the event in red numbers.
