Shootout Goes to Villerot on 1st Putt
Steve Villerot sank the very first of 78 putts taken in the Shootout portion of the Red Oaks Shootout and that was enough for 16 points and victory over the field of 7 shooters, the largest in event history. Bill Gordon and Scott Wilsey finished T2 after grinding out 15 points with 2-putts in all 5 rounds of the Shootout. Charlie Roy finished 4th. Barb Hoelzle made the final for the 2nd year in a row with a fine 1 under par to lead the preliminary stroke play round. Gordon and Wilsey tied for 2nd in that round as well with 1 over par scores. Defending champ Rich Dunmore, Villerot, Roy and Willi Hesse all made the final after Dunmore was attacked by a pine tree on the final hole, leading to a 2 over par round. The win is Villerot’s 7th on Tour in 77 starts.
