Bales wins Chelsea Classic title

Thom Bales used 4 birdies and an eagle to post a 2-under par 70 and win the 2007 Chelsea Classic by 6-strokes on a crusty Reddeman Farms golf club. As the afternoon winds made the greens hard and fast, Bales calmly went about posting the only sub-par round in the field. It was the 2nd win for the 2nd year player from Ann Arbor. He won the 2006 Ugly Pants Open in his rookie season.
Ray Collins (36-40 – 76) birdied 3 of his last 4 holes and recorded his 2nd top-4 this year. He ranks 6th on the Money List with $37 in prize money. Erik Meland, the defending Chelsea Classic champ eagled his last hole (#16) to finish 40-37 – 77 in solo 3rd. Rick Persichetti (38-40 – 78) and Tim Snitchler (37-41 – 78) tied for 4th.
