Paul Simson of Raleigh, N.C. is in good position to defend his title for the third year in a row after shooting 7-under-par, 65 in the first round of the Carolinas Super Senior Championship. 

Simson made a staggering eight birdies and only one bogey in Tuesday’s round. He’ll take a four-shot lead over his nearest competitors into Wednesday’s second and final round.

The reigning Carolinas Super Senior Men’s Player of the Year, Russ Perry of Winston-Salem, N.C. is tied for second place after an opening round of 3-under-par, 69. He’s tied with John Fritz of Mint Hill, N.C.

Only three other players shot under par in the Championship Division. Tim Pope of Spartanburg, S.C. sits alone in fourth place after an opening-round score of 2-under-par, 70. Jim Hunsuck of Statesville, N.C. and Robert Wildner of Hendersonville, N.C. are tied for fifth place after shooting one-under-par, 71.  

Simson is coming in hot off a win last week at the N.C. Senior Four-Ball Championship at Mill Creek Golf Club. Last week’s win marked the 37th lifetime CGA championship victory for Simson.

70+ Division

In the 70+ Division, Spike Smith of Pinehurst, N.C. is sitting in first place after an opening round of 3-under-par, 69. Our three-time champion, Arlis Pike of Kernersville, N.C. is one shot off the lead after a first-round score of 2-under-par, 70.
