Two local players and two out-of-towners earned spots in the 2017 U.S. Mid-Amateur Championship in Atlanta after the Cleveland Qualifier at Weymouth Country Club today.
Rob Garland from Nashville (pictured above) shot a blistering 7-under par 65 to post the best score by two shots.
Local star Aaron Crewse of Akron (left) tied with Adam Condello of Fairport NY at 5-under par 67 to each grab one of the next two spots.
And Dr. Jeff Mallette of North Canton (right) earned his way through in a sudden death playoff against two other players to grab the final qualifying spot.
The four will compete at the Capital City Club’s Crabapple Course and Atlanta National Golf Club for the U.S. Mid-Amateur Championship proper on October 7 – 12th, 2017.
