Final Round Results

GREENVILLE, SC – Final round results of the 28th Mid-Amateur Championship of the Carolinas Golf Association hosted by Greenville Country Club, Chanticleer course, Greenville, SC on Sunday, April 20, 2008 (6700 yards, par 36-36—72).

Robert Godfrey, 34, of Seneca, SC posted a two-under par 70 to win the Carolinas Mid-Amateur Championship by two strokes over Greenville Country Club member Lee Palms of Greenville, SC.

Godfrey, who operates a driving range, carded a double bogey six on the 446-yard par four opening hole. But he chipped away at that deficit throughout the round by holing four birdies with the last one holed at the par-five 17th hole. 

Palms held the lead for a couple of holes on the back nine until a double bogey six on the tough 400-yard par four 12th hole. Palms then sank birdies at both the 16th and 17th holes to try to catch Godfrey. Knowing he needed a birdie to tie for the lead he miss-hit a 3-wood that led to a bogey five to post a final round of 73.

Defending champion Walter Todd of Laurens, SC posted a one-over par 73 to finish in 6th place.

The victory is Godfrey’s second CGA major championship as he won the 1999 South Carolina Amateur Match Play Championship at The Windermere Club in Blythewood, SC.

The top 30 players receive an exemption into the 2009 Carolinas Mid-Amateur Championship.

This championship is conducted by the Carolinas Golf Association as a service to its 720 member clubs representing over 180,000 golfers.
