2009 TOURNAMENT INFORMATION
Travis Woolf is our 2009 Champion!!!
 

Travis WoolfThe final round has now been completed at the 94th Southwestern Amateur held on the Catalina Course at the OMNI  Tucson National Golf Resort in Tucson, Arizona, played under cloudy skies and some light afternoon rain. Travis Woolf of Fort Worth, TX, maintained his overnight lead and shot a steady 70 (-2) to shoot 72-71-65-70-278 (-10) and prevail by one shot over runner-up Michael Jensen of Los Altos, CA. "Last night, I tried not to think too much about the lead and tried to relax at dinner at Bob's with my girlfriend and mother and then to the spa for a little bit", said Travis. "I put a new putter in the bag this week and did not look at the scoreboard all week until the last green. It was a good week." This is the fourth year Travis has played in the Southwestern Amateur and plans to defend next year upon completion of his senior year at TCU. Michael Jensen in the next to the last group had a chance to tie but ended up bogeying the 18th hole. Ryan Brooks of Mesa, AZ, and David McDaniel of Tucson, AZ, finish third at 281 (-7).

 

All 31 players who played the final round are exempt for next year's 95th Southwestern Amateur to be held at Sycuan Golf Resort, El Cajon, CA. The Tournament Committee wishes to thank all the players for participating and look forward to next year.
