MIKE JOHNSON GETS 5TH SENIOR AMATEUR TOUR WIN
Posted: 8/8/2014 10:40:17 AM

Southern Pines, NC  (August 7, 2014)  -  Senior Amateur Golf Tour veteran Mike Johnson of Clayton had four Senior Tour wins under his belt coming into the 2014 season.  He had been winless this year until today's event at Southern Pines Country Club where he took the top spot in the A Flight competition.

The Donald Ross designed course proved to be the perfect setting for Johnson who was playing in his 11th event this season.  His 74 matched his lowest round of the year, and he needed every quality shot he hit as he edged two other Tour members, Pinehurst's Steve Smith and Yadkinville's Tom Fagerli by a single stroke.

"When you have individual flights of more than 30 players in them, as the A, B, and C Flights all had today, you generally have to go pretty low to beat that many people", said Tour Director Bruce Hallenbeck.  "Mike did it, and that's also what we saw today in the other 3 Flights".

As a matter of fact every flight winner was only 1 shot clear of their nearest competitors.  Pinehurst's Steve Lassiter  with his 1-under 70 in the Championship Flight, was 1 clear of  Whispering Pines resident Ron Hockensmith.  The C Flight had 1st-time winner Doug Jurusik of Wake Forest needing his lowest round of the year (an 81) to edge Pinehurst's Marty Carpenter.

Three players, Pinehurst's Tom Kubla, Sanford's Charles Mellette, and Graham's Louis Herndon were only 1 shot behind the eventual B Flight winner, High Point's Homer Baker.  "I'm gonna move up to the A Flight for future competition", stated Baker, as he received his 1st place prize.  "It's great to see a guy improve and want to take that next step up the competitive ladder", said Hallenbeck.  "Homer's a stand-up guy".

The next Senior Tour event will be held at Carolina Trace in Sanford on The Lake Course.  The August 14th event still has openings available.
