Steve Villerot collects the 65 Kennedy’s at Fifty Cent Classic
Steve Villerot, 3 weeks removed from his first career win, essentially made it 2 in a row with a victory at the 2010 Fifty Cent Classic on Saturday. Since his win at the Crazy Brit on July 17, Villerot skipped the Two-Stick and the Match Play and returned to action at Stony Creek Metropark. A fast start at the Fifty Cent allowed Villerot to post a 31-37 – 68 and a 2-stroke cushion over a pair of Erik’s.
Receiving the customary sixty five 50-cent pieces for first place, Villerot is now the leading money winner among rookies ($64.50) and is qualified for the EASTERN Championship and the PLAYERS Championship by virtue of his 2 victories and will certainly be in the top-20 money winners overall and qualify for the TOUR Championship.
Erik Johnson and Erik Meland tied for 2nd at 2-under 70. Meland (34-36 – 70) led the field in birdies with 9 and Johnson was 2nd with 7. Johnson (35-35 – 70) continues to lead the Tour with a 5.75 birdie average. Each took home a sack of 41 half dollars for the T2.
Greg Kline (37-35 – 72) finished in solo 4th and earned $8.50. Bob Baar (36-37 – 73) and Jeff Klipa (34-39 – 73) tied for 5th taking home $5.00 each. Among those tied for 7th was John Stepek. Part of the sponsoring group for the Fifty Cent Classic, Stepek (39-36 – 75) is moving to Chicago soon to be closer to the kids and grandkids.
