Steve Sharpe wins Chanticleer National Senior
Stephen Sharpe
GREENVILLE, South Carolina (May 30, 2014) -- At the Greenville Country Club, Steve Sharpe of Greensboro, North Carolina walked away holding the trophy of the fast rising Chanticleer National Invitational.
But it wasn't easy.
Sharpe led the tournament at the 36-hole point by three shots, after rounds of 69-73. His final round of 77 opened the door for his chasers, but when Rick Cloninger, who was in second, failed to make a charge (final round 77) it was up to Wayne Rogers of Easley, SC who fired 70 to post 220 in the clubhouse.
Sharpe closed the deal, Rogers wound up in second, and Mike Weiner of Kiawah Island, SC (with the most consistent scores of the tournament - 73-74-74) took third place.
Thanks to Greenville Country Club Assistant Pro Bo Wicker for submitting timely scores daily.
ABOUT THE
Chanticleer Senior Invitational
The Chanticleer National Senior Invitational started
in 2011 with the vision that it would provide a
superbly conditioned, very challenging course on
which to present a premier invitational tournament
for elite senior and super senior golfers recognized
for their playing accomplishments on a national and
international scale. The limited field is determined
from the pool of applicants with preference given to
players' performance in national and international
events as well as the current rankings. As an
integral
part of our vision, we provide extraordinary
hospitality and great value to both our players and
their significant others.
The Senior Division competition will be for players
55-64, as well as other
older qualified players who may desire to play in this
division. The Super
Senior division will be for players 65-70, as well as
other older qualified
players who prefer to play at Chanticleer. There will
be a cut after 36 holes.
As an option for Legends, we will host a separate
70+ Legends division at
our Riverside course provided we have a minimum
number of 16 players.
There will NOT be a cut.
