FINAL RESULTS: 2014 ADGA Lazor 2-Man Better Ball

Brian Smith, Mike Lower, Tim Morrow and Ryan Stefanski (l to r) tied for first place in the 2014 ADGA Lazor.

It came down to four chances at the 18th hole in the 2014 Akron District Golf Association’s Lazor 2-Man Better Ball at Brookledge Golf Course in Cuyahoga Falls on Saturday.

The team of Brian Smith and Ryan Stefanski were at 8-under par on the day, and both of them had hit the final green. Tim Morrow and Mike Lower were one shot behind, and they were in a tough spot after their second shots: Morrow had missed the green short-right, and Lower was further away from the hole than both of the leaders.

But Morrow made a good birdie chip then holed the return 5-footer for par, giving Lower free run with his big-breaking putt — a putt that he canned with a fist pump.

Knowing they had two putts with a chance to win outright, Smith and Stefanski both made good rolls but failed to convert either effort. So it was a tie at the top at 63.

Brandon Shannon and Blake Fouty finished alone in third place at 64, followed by red-hot Howard Clendenin and partner John Topeka in fourth at 65.

In the Senior Division, there was a bit less drama as Mark Thomas and Tom Seever rolled to two-shot victory over Rick Bryson and Rick Merrow with a solid score of 6-under par 65. Those two teams were tied after the front nine, but Seever and Thomas posted a back nine 32 against a 35 by Bryson and Merrow.
