Dylan Schwarz squeaked past Andrew Peters on the final hole at Firestone Country Club’s Fazio Course with a net bogey to finish with 42 Stableford points and win the 2025 NOGA PrimePay Net Stableford by one.
Schwarz tallied five net birdies and two net eagles on Tuesday, finishing with an impressive score of 38-39=77 as a 13-handicap.
William Immler held the lead for most of the afternoon after putting up a score of 37 at the Individual Stableford. The Red Tail Golf Club member posted five net birdies and a net eagle on Tuesday afternoon to put himself in contention. Immler would wind up sharing the top spot on the Senior Division leaderboard.
John Melnik took advantage of being one of the final groups on the course on Tuesday, as he would post the exact target number everyone was chasing. Melnik took full advantage of two net eagles on Tuesday to share the top spot in the Senior Division.
In the Five Iron Golf Closest-to-the-Pin Contest at Firestone Country Club, Al Miano won the $250 Five Iron Golf Gift Card with the closest approach of the day to 4-feet 6-inches on the 133-yard par-3 7th hole. This Five Iron Golf CTP contest will be run at every NOGA Net event in 2025, with a $250 card up for grabs each time.
