Carol Koch is Ladies champ
Carol Koch, hero of last September’s Commissioner’s Cup, won her first tournament on Sunday at the 2008 MT Ladies Open. Koch shot an 8-over par 80 in blustery conditions at Lake Forest Golf Club to beat Barb Hoelzle and Terry Baar by 4-strokes. Koch built the 4-stroke lead on the front nine aided by birdies at the 5th and 8th and an eagle at the 9th. She hit 8 of 14 fairways and led the field with 34 putts.
Barb Hoelzle (40-44 – 84) and Terry Baar (39-45 – 84) shared 2nd place and Maureen Abele (41-44 – 85) finished 4th in the “Rally for a Cure” event to benefit breast cancer awareness. Koch also won the 50/50 putting challenge and promptly donated her 50% ($45) back to the cause. In total, the Mulligan Tour will donate $400 to the Susan G Komen foundation on behalf of the 11 players participating in the 2008 MT Ladies Open.
