Puffenberger Wins Her Tournament (Again)

Helen Puffenberger seems to often funnel the emotion of her sponsored Tour event into superior play. This year she matched her 2019 victory by pressing to a big lead and then holding on for a 1 shot win at 4 under par 68. Mike Prieskorn took 2nd at 3 under par also 68 as the men’s par was 71 and women’s 72. Gregg Nothdurft tied Chris Stalo and Scott Wilsey for 3rd at 1 under par 70. On course prizes went to Don Jones, the younger better looking Kiekbush and someone claiming to be the younger, sexy, mesmerizing Kiekbush. We’re waiting for ruling on that last one. Gary Thomas earned the East Skins Game invitation. Notables: Jeff Pasz had 28 putts, Nothdurft 26 and Prieskorn led the field with an impressive 24 putts. Nothdurft hit 10 fairways while Jones led with 11. John Raymond holed out from the fairway for an eagle on a hole that owed him from last year. Wilsey logged his 10th Tour 3rd place finish and joined the millenium club with over $1000 in career earnings. Puffenberger got her 60th Tour Top-4 finish and moved to 4th in all-time Caddyshack winnings with her 8th Tour win in her 234th start.

A late donation rounded off the money raised for Pompe disease research at $1000.
