Roy wins, Part II
Charlie Roy closed out the Tour’s regular season by winning the final 2 events. After winning the Caddyshack Classic on Saturday, he traveled up to Stony Creek Metropark on Sunday and took the 2009 Fifty Cent Classic by 3 strokes to sweep the weekend’s tournaments. He is the 2nd player in Tour history to win twice in one weekend following Ed Loescher who pulled off the feat in 2006 (Fox Hunt and Go Blue Classic).
Roy (31-35 – 66) hit 7 fairways and 9 greens and converted 2 eagles and 7 birdies to pull away from the field. A commanding 8-shot lead allowed Roy the luxury of finishing with triple-bogey at 17 and bogey at 18 and still claim the title. From off the list, he climbed up to 8th on the money standings after earning $68.50 in 2 days. As is tradition at the Fifty Cent, the winner collected his first place prize of $32.50 in the form of 65 fifty cent pieces.
Young Tom Litzler (36-33 – 69) led the field with 28 putts and recorded his 5th top-4 this year collecting 49 half dollars. He moved up to 2nd on the money list with $105.50 earned in 13 tournaments in 2009. Erik Meland (35-36 – 71) birdied the final 2 holes to get back into red numbers and claim 3rd just ahead of Todd Masura. A rookie from Livonia, Masura (35-37 – 72) captured his first top-4 and earned $8.50 in half dollars.
