West Chester’s Joe Wilson IV used a hot putter to card an 8-under par 64 at Zanesville Country Club during Round 2 of the 2025 Ohio Amateur Championship.
After his opening round of 5-under par 67, Wilson’s 36-hole total of 13-under par 131 is believed to be the lowest in Ohio Amateur Championship history.
Wilson, a member of the Ohio State Buckeyes Golf Team, currently holds a four shot lead over T.J. Kreusch of Dayton, who has finished 36 holes at 9-under par 135.
