Perch reels in 18th career win
Rick Persichetti won the 2010 Ugly Pants Open on Saturday – his 18th title in 8 years on Tour. Perch posted a 38-31 – 69 that was 4-strokes better than Eric Morris and 5-strokes clear of Barb Hoelzle and John Powell. The 18 wins is a new record on Tour. The victory was Persichetti’s 65th top-4 in 132 career starts. He also has the most runner-up finishes (19) in Tour history.
A week after winning the Caddyshack Classic, Morris (35-38 – 73) played the final 4 holes at Downing Farms in 6-over par to lose the lead and drop back to 2nd place. The $21 check was enough to get Morris into the WESTERN Championship field.
Hoelzle, the 2007 UPO champ, was the leader at the turn after going out in 31. But an inward 43 relegated her to T-3. Powell (35-39 – 74) made it 3 straight 3rd place finishes as he continues to stay in striking distance of 2010 Money Title.
David Martin won the “Ugly Attire” Award and earned $40 off of his 2011 membership.
