TOLEDO CC PRO JAYSEN HANSEN WINS NOPGA SECTION CHAMPIONSHIP FOR SECOND TIME
Toledo Country Club Head Professional Jaysen Hansen shot a stress-free, 3-under 69 at Tippecanoe Country Club to win the 75th Professional Championship, conducted by the Northern Ohio Professional Golfers Association.
It marked the second time Hansen, a former head pro at Beechmont Country Club, has won one of the most coveted tournaments in the NOPGA. He won previously in 2020.
Hansen’s second straight 69 – he was the only player in the final field of 28 to shoot three straight sub-par rounds – gave him a 54-hole score of 7-under 209 and at a three-shot victory over three-time champion Jim Troy (75-70-67=212), an instructor at The Golf Dome. Canterbury Golf Club Assistant Professional Anthony Panepento finished third with rounds of 76-67-70=213.
The top five players in the Section tournament qualify for the 58th PGA Professional National Championship, to be held Apr. 26-29, 2026 in Bandon, Oregon at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort. The other qualifiers are Belmont Country Club and the 2019 champion Mike Stone (72-73-69=214) and Optimus Golf owner Mark Sierak (71-73-72=216). Four alternate spots were also awarded.
While this was Hansen’s second win in this event, he has qualified for the national stage 17 times.
Also of note, the Professional Championship is the final event to determine the regular division NOPGA team for the 29th Ohio Cup Matches. The top nine point-leaders and one captain’s choice in the Regular Division, and the top five and one captain’s pick in the Senior Division will make up NOPGA team when it takes on the Southern Ohio PGA squad at Wedgewood Golf and Country Club in Powell, Ohio, on Oct. 7-8.
