Brown Wins Coors Lite ProAm in Playoff
Dean Brown (68-78 - 146) birdied the first hole of a playoff with Kevin Murashak (73-73 -146) to win the Coors Lite Pro AM hosted by Deer Park in Yorkton. The pros and amatuers had to survive brutal conditions on day 2 with heavy rain and winds pounding the players. Pat Marcia's team from the TorHill Golf Club captured the team event.
Once again Allan Sauser and his team of volunteers put on a fantastic show. The Yorkton Pro Am continues to be a great event on a great golf course. On a sad note, this may have been the last Coors Lite Pro Am due to lack of support from the zone. Hopefully with a date change next year the event will continue. Congratulations Allan and the volunteers on a great run with the Coors Lite Pro AM!
Dean Brown of the Royal Regina Golf Club birdied the first playoff hole to capture the 2008 Taylor Made Spring Championship held at the Willows Golf and Country Club. Brown defeated John Slusar from Nipiwan in a playoff after firing 67 to make up ground on the co-leader Slusar. John Slusar and Scott Knapp shared the first round lead after firing rounds of 70. Knapp finished the day one shot out of the playoff and in solo third.
This years event which was also co sponsored by Golf Supply House and National Leasing was a great success. Host Professional Brennan Gee did a wonderful job and all his staff should be commended for the excellent job they did in hosting this years event.
