Hansen Bridges the Creek for Victory
The 2019 Harbour Pointe Open came down to the final hole with 3 players tied for the lead at Paint Creek Country Club. All playing in the final group, Rich Dunmore, Chuck Withey and David Hansen teed up on the 36th hole of the HPO (the course’s 9th hole) tied at 9 over par. Hansen finds the right rough but can see the hole. Both Withey and Dunmore find the trees and are forced to layup short of the creek running across the hole about 50 yards short of the green. Hansen decides to go for it, but the ball is cut by the wind and is falling short in the creek. Whack! It hits the wooden bridge crossing the creek on the right and bounces to the edge of the green! Hansen pars to win! Withey and Dunmore tie for 2nd at 10 over par and Scott Wilsey took 4th at 12 over par. Hansen has the size of Reavie with the record of Koepka having now won 3 majors in 5 wins on Tour in 34 starts. The win also moves him to #1 in the World Rankings with only a couple weeks to go until the Match Play Championship.
