SYCUAN RESORT - WILLOW GLEN COURSE
El Cajon, California
CONGRATULATIONS ESTANISLAO GUERRERO !!!
Estanislao Guerrero from Tijuana, Mexico is our 2010 Southwestern Amateur Champion firing a 65 (-5) for a 72-hole total of 273 (-7) to come from 2 strokes back and win by 2 strokes over Bryan Martin of Thousand Oaks, CA and Joseph Harrison from Boulder City, NV. "Winning in San Diego was special being close to home, but unfortunately my family didn't get to see it with Mexico in the World Cup" said Guerrero. "Birdies on 5 and 6 got my round started. I played steady for the middle of the round then birdied 15 from 3 feet, 16 from 30 feet and just missed an eagle on 17. Didn't have any bogeys. I grew up playing around here so that probably was an advantage." Indeed! Guerrero was born in Mexico City but played his junior golf around the San Diego area until age 17. He played his college golf at Old Dominion in Virginia. He hopes to qualify for the US Amateur and with this win get invitations to the Western Amateur and the Mexican team for the World Team event.
The tournament committee wishes to especially thank Sycuan Resort for graciously hosting this event. Thanks also to the players, fans, spectators and volunteers who without them would not make this event possible. We hope to see you next year in El Paso for the 96th Annual Southwestern Amateur Championship
