June 14, 2008

Barb Hoelzle – 2008 Holy Grail champ

Barb Hoelzle posted a 1-over par 72 at St. John’s Golf & Conference Center and claimed her 3rd title at the 2008 Holy Grail. Hoelzle (formerly Barb Randle) beat Erik Meland by a stroke and added the Holy Grail to her Ugly Pants Open (2007) and Par-54 Classic (2005) victories. The $32 first place check was her largest payday to date, securing a spot in the WESTERN Championship on August 23rd, and placing 4th on the current West division money list.

Meland (36-37 – 73) recorded his 3rd top-4 of the year while Terry Baar (40-36 – 76) and Victor McCoy (40-36 – 76) shared 3rd place. Baar has consecutive top-4’s after her T-3 at the Go Blue Classic a week earlier. And McCoy played well as he prepares to host his tournament next weekend at Farmington Hills GC – the Real McCoy Classic.
