TOURNAMENT PREVIEW:
The first of three Dixie tournaments, the Dixie
Senior, teed off this morning at Heron Bay Golf
Club.
If you're the betting type, you would have to put
even money on Rick Woulfe to continue his
torrid
streak of golf and bring home a win as he did at
the
Dixie in 2010.
Woulfe, a living legend of Florida amateur
golf,
won the Society of Seniors Ralph Bogart
tournament
on Wednesday, is on an amazing run. Prior to
that he
won the Crane Cup Senior at Floridian in mid-
November, and he took home the prestigious
Society
of Seniors Championship the first week in
November.
At Heron Bay, Woulfe faces a solid field that
includes the number one and two players in the
AmateurGolf.com Senior Rankings, Brady Exber
(Las
Vegas) and Ron Carter (Indiana). Exber had a
hot
October, bringing home three big tournament
wins
and being named the Southern Golf Association
Amateur of the Month. Defending champ Doug
Hanzel of Savannah is also in the field.
