Arnold takes Tin Cup
Kelly Arnold captured his 2nd Tour win last Saturday at Hickory Creek Golf Club by playing his final 9 holes in 2-under par. Arnold (39-35 – 74) finished at 2-over for the tournament winning the Tin Cup by 2 strokes over Tom W Litzler. Arnold, whose previous Tour victory was the 2006 PLAYERS Championship, won $32 and is automatically qualified for the 2008 PLAYERS Championship in September.
“Old Tom” Litzler (40-36 – 76) led the field with 29 putts and converted 4 birdies (T-1 in the field) but finished 2nd for the 10th time in his career. Dave Randall (39-38 – 77) led the field with 10 fairways but was relegated to 3rd place after recording 3 bogies in his last 6 holes. The defending champ Russ Butler (38-40 – 78) fought a faulty putter but secured a top-4 finish in the first Central division tournament of the new season.
