He notched a 2 shot win over Bill Gordon who came in fresh off a Florida warm up to finish 3 under. Chuck Withey and Rod ‘Tuna’ Theunissen tied for 3rd at 2 under par. Notable: Chris Stalo and David Wilson finished in the money for the first time in their young careers. On course prizes went to Ryan and Helen Puffenberger. This is Ryan’s 2nd career win in his 20th start. He matches dad Eric with his first solo win after they teamed up the win the Memorial for their first. Dad is quick to point out he got the solo win first, but Ryan’s rockets him to #5 in the World Rankings. A Scottie Scheffler in the making?
