Prieskorn makes Two-Stick his 3rd win of the year
Mike Prieskorn joined his Memorial partner Thom Bales as 3 time winners in 2010. Prieskorn used a 3-wood and a 7-iron to navigate around the 6,200 yards of Sandy Creek GC and win the 2010 Two-Stick Classic. He finished tied with Rick Persichetti at 1-over 73, but a playoff never materialized when Perch, playing in the first group, needed to get home for his daughter’s birthday party.
Leading the field in fairways hit (11), greens in regulation (6) and birdies made (6), Prieskorn recovered from a double bogey, bogey, triple bogey start by playing the next 9 holes in 5-under par. He won the playoff by default – the 3rd time in Tour history that a champion won a playoff without stroking a putt. Prieskorn moves up to 2nd on the Money List ($118)
Barb Hoelzle (34-40 – 74) bogied the last 2 holes to finish a stroke out of the playoff. The MT Ladies champ, Hoelzle added $14 to her 2010 season and is currently 8th on the Money List. Greg Kline (36-41 – 77) and Dan Schwartz (41-36 – 77) shared 4th place after Schwartz drained a snaking 20 footer on 18 for eagle. Kline continues to lead the Tour in prize money ($140.27)
