Eldridge Leads NC Amateur

56th North Carolina Amateur Championship Round 2 Results
Thomas Eldridge Holds Two Shot Lead Heading Into Round 3

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (June 17, 2016) -- Second round results from 56th North Carolina Amateur hosted by Governors Club in Chapel Hill on Friday, June 17, 2016 (7005 yards, par 36-36--72, Course/Slope Rating: 74.5/142).

For the second round of the 56th North Carolina Amateur Championship players were relieved the weather had cooled off from yesterday, but were faced with a challenging breeze throughout the day creating a new obstacle they had to overcome.

After a second day of play, there has been change at the top of the leaderboard.  Thomas Eldridge of Raleigh is now the sole leader of the championship with two rounds to go.  He was able to put together another impressive round of 3-under-par, putting him at 7-under for the championship.  When asked about his round Friday, he said the key to his success was “Not thinking about his position in the field, keeping the ball in play, and making some big par putts.”  He went on to state that he feels “really good” about coming into tomorrow’s round as the sole leader and that he needs to “not change anything” as well as “keep making birdies.”

Eldridge’s co-leaders at the start of the round, Justin Tereshko of Jamestown and Bryce Hendrix of Greenville, were unable to keep their momentum going from the first round. Tereshko finished today at even par putting him in a four-way tie for fourth, while Hendrix shot three over par dropping him to a three-way tie for 17th with Philip Oweida of Charlotte and Uly Grisette of Winston-Salem.

Stephen Franken of Raleigh and Tim Conover of Holly Springs were able to post rounds in the red for the second day in a row, moving them into a tie for second place at 5-under.  Franken was able to play consistent golf allowing him to have three birdies with one bogey per side to shoot 4-under on the day (34-34—68).  Conover was able to make it around the course with 14 pars, three birdies, and one bogey to finish at 2-under for the day.      

The round of the day came from the final group as Joseph Cansler of Clemmons shot a 5-under-par 67 in high gusty winds. He sits at 4-under par in a tie for 4th.

The championship format is 72 holes of stroke play. After 36 holes, the field is cut to the low 60 scorers and ties. A tie for the overall championship is decided by an on-course playoff. Entry is open to any male amateur golfer who has reached his 13th birthday by June 16, 2016, is a legal resident of North Carolina, is a member in good standing of a club which is a member of the Carolinas Golf Association (CGA) and has an active GHIN® USGA Handicap Index® at a CGA member club that does not exceed 7.4.
