Ray Nadell – 2014 Harbour Pointe Open champ

The Lighthouse trophy shines again for Ray Nadell. The 2013 “Champion Golfer of the Year” has retained that moniker by winning the 2014 Commercial Underwriters Harbour Pointe Open with scores of 67 and 74 at the Majestic at Lake Walden. Nadell opened a 4-stroke lead with a Saturday 67 that included 4 birdies and 2 eagles and took nearly 6 hours to complete after a lengthy mid-round weather delay. Nadell’s closest pursuer was Tom Moran, a 5-time winner on Tour, looking for his first major title. Moran carded 7 birdies in a Saturday 71 and briefly took the lead during the championship round on Sunday before yielding to the defending champ with a final round 72.

Eric Birkle had the best round on Sunday (71) and caught Jeff Klipa to tie for 3rd at 5-over 149. Gregg Nothdurft (74-76 – 150) finished in 5th while Doug Billiau (77-75 – 152) and Mike Shafer (76-77 – 153) finishing 6th and 7th.
