Jon and Madison Isaacson of Greensboro, N.C. captured the overall championship trophy at the 23rd Carolinas Parent Child Championship with a final score of 2-under-par, 70, winning the match in one playoff hole against reigning champions, Jodee and Kevin Tindal of Rock Hill, S.C.
 

“We’re both so excited, and so happy. We had a lot of fun,” Jon said. 

In the playoff hole, Madison hit her favorite club, an 8 iron, into the green to make the birdie and sink the winning putt. 

“I was just telling myself to hit it close, and ended up hitting it to five feet which was pretty nice,” Madison said. 

 

 

 

This is their second time winning the Parent-Child Championship; the first title being in 2018. 

“I’m just happy I didn’t mess it up this year! Really though, before the playoff I had felt like we had already won because we got to come play and have a good time,” Jon said. 

The CGA would like to extend a thank you to the members and staff of Mid Pines Inn and Golf Club for their hospitality in hosting the 23rd Carolinas Parent-Child Championship. We would also like to thank the players and spectators for their understanding and adherence to the new COVID-19 tournament protocols.
