Bill Gordon claims Carrington title
Bill Gordon won the 2011 Carrington Classic on Saturday, becoming the 4th rookie to find the winner’s circle this year. The Ann Arbor resident shot a back nine 30 and overcame a 9 stroke deficit at the turn. He made 2 eagles and 4 birdies to finish at 2-under 70 – the only player to finish in red numbers. Gordon won $36 and stamped his ticket to the PLAYERS Championship at the end of the month.
A five-way tie for 2nd place included the last 3 Carrington champs. Mike Prieskorn (2010), Eric Morris (2009) and Kelly Arnold (2008) all finished at even par 72 along with Tim Markel and Kevin Morin. The 2nd place logjam yielded $12.80 for each player and, with 1 Central tournament remaining, a spot in the top-20 Central money winners.
