CARLSBAD, Calif. (Dec. 20, 2011) -- The 2011
amateurgolf.com
Tournament Series started with a bang at
Pasatiempo Golf Club in
January, when
Jeffrey Hamm holed out his
second shot for double
eagle on the 9th hole to win the Alistair
Mackenzie Cup. We ended
at Stevinson Ranch in December, with
Barry Logar getting the win on
the second hole of
a sudden-death with Patrick Grimes. Along the
way, we visited
Monterey (three times), Bandon Dunes, Ore.,
and even Carlsbad,
the "World HQ" of amateurgolf.com.
Players of the year for each of our three
divisions are now officially
etched on the perpetual trophy. They are:
CHAMPIONSHIP
Randy Haag: Continuing his
stranglehold on the title
since amateurgolf.com first began awarding it,
Randy Haag is again
the Championship Division Player of the Year.
In 2011, Haag took
home the
California
Mid-Amateur,
the
Wine
Country Cup and tied for first at the
Monterey
County Four-Ball.
Haag added a second place finish at the
Bay Regional
Championship, a third-place effort at the
Monterey Bay
Championship, a fourth-place finish at the
Silicon Valley Amateur
and placed sixth at the Alister MacKenzie Cup.
SENIOR
Mark Miller: A regular on the
amateurgolf.com
Tournament Series, Mark Miller is the 2011
Senior Division Player of
the Year. Miller was spectacular in 2011,
winning three events. He
took home victories at the
Monterey
Bay
Championship, the
Wine Country
Cub and
finished tied at the top at the
Monterey
County Four-Ball.
He was in position to win every event he
played in, placing
second at the Christmas Classic, third at the
Silicon Valley
Amateur and fourth at the California Mid-Am
and Alister MacKenzie
Cup.
NET
Bryan Beaver: With his
handicap nearing a 4,
tournament golf is clearly helping Bryan Beaver
graduate to the
Championship Division. But that doesn't mean
he didn't enjoy his
time in the Net Division where he earned 2011
Player of the Year
honors. Beaver won the
Silicon
Valley Amateur
and the
California
Mid-Amateur
this season. A fifth-place finish at the Alister
Mackenzie Cup and a
third-place honor at the amateurgolf.com Tour
Championship only
helped solidify the stellar season Beaver had in
2011.
