TPC Deere Run A Flight Recap:

Making his 2021 Chicago Senior Tour debut, one man bested the rest. Gary Granback outlasted the field and maybe more importantly the wind, to secure victory in the first Major of the Season. He takes home a cool $300 for the win and has earned 900 points in the Race to Hilton Head.

Day 1: The conditions were tough, and the scores reflected that as only 4 players were able to break 45 on the front nine. Reggie Livingston came out hot again shooting a front nine 40 including an amazing Eagle on the 6th Hole, as he looked to follow up his winning performance at Lincolnshire CC. Gary Granback was only 2 back after the opening 9, and close on his tail was both Dean Kirchoff with a birdie on 9, and Kobus Van Der Zel carding opening 43s.

It was on the back 9 that Danny Eastep began finding his groove carding a 43 to remain well in the hunt at 4th place. Dave Baldwin tied for the lead in Birdies on Saturday with 2 as he carded an opening round 90 in his season debut.

Day 2: The wind decided to mildly cooperate on Sunday and that helped Thom Lindwall come on strong on the front nine, with the low flight front nine score of 42 only to later be matched by leaders Van Der Zel and Granback, as the first groups attempted to apply pressure on the leaders. Just when it looked like Dean Kirchoff may be falling out of the race he once again turned it on during the back 9, going just three over to surge into a second place finish. But on this day, no one was going to catch Gary Granback as he shot a front 9 score of 42, and then followed with a solid closing four over back 9 (40). His two day total of 168 gave him breathing room as he finished 6 shots clear of second place, Dean Kirchoff, and Kobus Van Der Zel rounded out the top 3 with a two day total of 175 while making the Prize Purse cut line, edging out Reggie Livingston by tie-breaker.
