With a slurry of birdies on his home track, Whispering Woods’ Tim Weyand captured the JC Martin Seniors tournament by 2 strokes over 2-time champion, Ron Coleman.

Weyand’s card included birdies on 3,5,7,8, and 9 enroute to a front nine 31. A birdie on hole 12 moved him to 6-under par for the day before recording back-to-back bogies on 13 and 14. His seventh birdie came on 15 and then closed with 3 more bogies to finish with 70.

Even with his super hot round, Weyand was not without chasers. Kahkwa’s Mike Capotis moved to 3-under after his 5th birdie on number 15. At that point Weyand was sitting at 4-under with 2 to play. Capotis’ hopes were dashed with an untimely double on 16 followed by 2 closing bogies for 73. Coleman also gave himself a chance. His 6th birdie of the day also came on the 15th and he was 2-under. His title hopes were lost with a double on the par-4 17th. Coleman finished as the runner-up with an even par 72. Mark Noce, twice a runner up also had it to 2-under on the back night but strung together consecutive bogies on holes 14 through 17 to finish with 74.

The net champion was Dave Irwin. His birdies on 10, 12, and 13 got him to 1-under but then offset those 3 birds with bogies on 15, 16, and 18. His net score of 68 was one better than both Jeff Weyand and Homer Capotis and good for the title.

In the super seniors (70 & over) Jim Delsandro tied with Dave Lehner with 76 for low gross and John Adituori finished with 65 to win the low net prize.
