Russ Nicholson prevails in 2015 Spring Medal Championship

The Spring Medal Play Championship is one of the most demanding tournaments of the year. Players compete over 36 holes of stroke play in this 2-week event to claim victory. While the field is flighted, the champion can come from any flight to win the top prize. This year Russ Nicholson earned top honors turning in a 2-round net 137. That's 14 strokes under par. Well done Russ! Other scores of note include Pete Pappas 138, Jay Karafa 139 and Jim Baker 140. Also, congratulations to Bob Kaswen who netted a stunning 60 in the first round.
