Klipa is Big Dog for ’08
Jeff Klipa entered the 2008 Big Dog Pro-Am looking for a ticket to Moose Ridge – site of the WESTERN Championship on August 23rd. Likely needing a top-3 finish to earn enough prize money to get into the top-20, Klipa ended up with the automatic berth via the winner’s circle. With the help of Sergio Garcia’s 68 in the final round of the PGA Championship, Klipa added his own 74 at Sandy Creek GC to finish at even par 142, 3 strokes better than Rick Persichetti.
Persichetti (70-75 – 145) started the day tied for 4th, 2 strokes back, thanks to Phil Mickelson’s final round 70. Thom Bales had the low net round (73) from the Mulligan Tour players on Saturday but needed to make up too much ground from his 2 PGA picks – Anthony Kim (77) and Aarron Baddley (73). He finished in a tie for 3rd with David Martin (71-75 – 146) but regained the lead on the Mulligan Tour money list ($185.50) after taking in $12 from the Big Dog Pro-Am and $9 earlier in the day at Carrington.
