DURHAM, N.C. (April 15, 2018) -- Final Results of the Carolinas Golf Association's 38th Carolinas Mid-Amateur Championship at Treyburn Country Club in Durham, N.C. on Sunday, April 15th, 2018 (6,715 yards, Par 36-36-72, Course/Slope Rating: 71.8/132).

John Pitt of Raleigh, N.C. took home his second Carolinas Golf Association Championship winning the 38th Carolinas Mid-Amateur Championship by one shot at Treyburn Country Club in Durham, N.C.

Pitt, the 2001 Carolinas Amateur Champion, started the day tied for second but with a final round back nine of three-under was able to come from behind to win. "I really was just playing golf not thinking about winning during the front nine because we were all hitting it well" said Pitt. Down four at the turn Pitt's patience finally paid off on 15. After an errant tee shot for the second round leader Justin Tereshko, Pitt was able to capitalize, "I rolled one in on 14 from about 25 feet and hit it to tap in on 15 for birdie that's when things changed." Pitt, a Real Estate Advisor, found himself in the lead for the first time "nerves definitely kicked in and the juices were flowing but I was able to stay calm. I definitely left myself with more than I wanted on 18 but we got it in there." 17 years after his first CGA Championship, Pitt was able to capture his second, "It feels like my first cause its been so long but like most people I hadn't been playing much this year so it feels great to win."

Sherrill Britt of West End, N.C and Justin Tereshko of Greensboro, N.C. finished tied for second one shot short of Pitt. Britt fired a tournament low, final round, 66, that included four birdies and an eagle. Tereshko, the defending North Carolina Amateur Champion, shot rounds of 69-71-72 for a total of 212.
