They finished 1/2 in 2023, and this year, the result flipped.

Defending Champ Kevin Shields and Gordon Vietmeier were our Round One Leaders, and they battled back and forth through Round Two and FIVE Playoff holes to decide the championship by one stroke.

We had a fabulous two days at Green Oaks Country Club; the course was green, plush, and in championship condition.

Our section champion and qualifiers (4 in total) advance to the 36th Senior PGA Professional Championship, held September 24-29, 2024, at Sunriver Resort in Sunriver, Oregon. (Meadows Course & Woodlands Course)
