Quixote Club provided the beautiful backdrop for a strong performance by David Glabicki and Jeff Jamieson, both of Cary, N.C., to win the 55th Carolinas Senior Four-Ball Championship.
"We played good solid golf," said Jamieson. "We finally ran into some adversity in today's round after some early bogeys, but then we got the ship righted, we turned it around and got it in the right direction."
Solid and self-titled 'uneventful' two rounds of 67 and 64 led the field into today's final round. After a few bogeys on the front, they regained their composure to make six birdies and finished at -11 (199 total), two shots better than the team of Duff Wagner (Taylors, S.C.) and Yancey Johnson (Simpsonville, S.C.), who had exceptional scores of 69, and back-to-back 66's (201 total).
Even more remarkable is the pair were playing together for the first time. They were both in need of a partner, and a mutual friend connected them. "That golf course is a great golf course, well kept, and to go bogey free in the first two rounds was really something," said Glabicki. "We both just played very positive, very have similar games, both good putters, both good short games, and neither one of us was ever out of the hole; it was low stress."
Walker Taylor (Wilmington, N.C.) and Dale Fuller (Raleigh, N.C.) took third place with strong rounds of 67, 66, and 69 (202 total).
The CGA would like to thank the members and staff of Quiote Club, owners Greg and Lewis Thompson, Head Professional Eric Pederson, Golf Course Superintendent Chuck Green, and Director of Member Services Errika Jones.
