Klipa’s 2nd career title is Sweet
Jeff Klipa threw out his double bogies on the 11th and 12th holes to secure a 7-under par 16-hole total to win the 2007 Sweet Sixteen by 10-strokes. Klipa played the last 5 holes eagle-birdie-bogey-birdie-eagle to pull away from the field. Dan Schwartz finished 2nd at 3-over par and Russ Butler (+5) and the defending champ David Martin (+5) tied for 3rd. Notables: Klipa led the day with 30 putts. A host of players hit 10 fairways including Butler, Martin, Devonne Mowry, John Stepek, and Greg Kline. The Greens in regulation numbers were un-notable.
The Sweet Sixteen was Klipa’s 2nd career win but first since his rookie season (2003 Two-Stick Classic). He also finished closest-to-the-pin on hole #14 earning the Central division’s first invitation to the Skins Game at the end of the season.
