Nicholas Wins First-Ever Tour Champ Playoff
Mike Nicholas out-lasted a rainy start and a 3-way playoff finish to take his first Major Title at the Tour Championship. Nicholas posted 5 birdies over a tough Inkster Valley layout and finished in a 4-over par tie. In the playoff with runner-ups Rich Dunmore and Mike Prieskorn, Nicholas sunk a 1-putt on the first playoff hole to take an early lead. Prieskorn answered with a 1-putt 2nd hole but was set back with a 3-putt 3rd hole. Dunmore’s final hole putt for a tie came up just short and Nicholas had a 2-putt win. Chuck Withey finished 1 shot back in 4th, but his par finishing hole secured the Tour Money Title for 2016.
