Southeast Region Championship Results, Others On Tap

Southeast: Ron Cox from Nashville, Tennessee, emerged victorious over a field of 15 other competitors in winning the USGTF Southeast Region Championship in February at Temple Terrace Golf & Country Club. The course played extremely difficult as the conditions throughout were firm and fast, with a fair amount of wind, to boot.

Cox opened with a 74 to forge a three-stroke lead over Eric Hammer from Melbourne, Florida. Cox then shot 79 for a two-day total of 153 to outlast Hammer by four strokes. Brent Davies from Clarkston, Michigan, finished third, followed by Central Region director Tony McMullin from Mason, Ohio; Carlos de Barros from Lake Worth, Florida; national course director Mark Harman from Ridgeland, South Carolina, and David Frantz from Bradenton, Florida, to round out the players who finished in the money.
