PAT BROGDEN
CAPTURES HER SECOND NORTH CAROLINA WOMEN'S SENIOR CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE
Charlotte, NC
(4/28/10) - Final results of the North Carolina Women's Senior Amateur
Championship hosted by Cedarwood Country Club on Wednesday, April 28, 2010. Par
37-35-72, 5414 yards.
Pat Brogden
of Garner, NC captured her 5th major CGA Championship title. Brogden faced
tough and windy conditions to win the 7th North Carolina Women’s
Senior Amateur Championship by four strokes over defending champion, Melissa
Sage of Charlotte, NC.
Brogden
always knew where she stood throughout the day but felt that the 11th hole could
have been a pivotal hole in the championship.
"I knew I
still had a two shot lead while lining up my putt but Melissa (Sage) had a
birdie putt and I knew if I didn't make a par we would be tied." Sage's birdie
putt just stayed on the edge of the hole while Brogden made her tricky four foot
putt.
"I didn't do
anything spectacular out there today but I kept hitting fairways and greens."
Brogden said. Brogden now holds the Carolinas Women’s Senior Amateur and the
North Carolina Women’s Senior titles. The left handed, cross handed player is
becoming the one player to defeat.
In the
tournament tee division, Kay Wheeler of Charlotte, NC had a total of 161 to win
the tournament tee division. This division plays a shorter course.
