FRANKLIN, Ind. (August 5, 2013) — Columbus’ Tobi Herron fired back-to-back 1-over-par 73s at the IWGA Mid Amateur Championship held at Hillview CC, which was enough for a five shot victory over Noblesville’s Lisa Cook.
"I had some good up-and-downs the last couple of days which saved me a lot,” Herron said. "I also hit a lot of good approach shots and although I didn’t putt as well as I had hoped I am happy with my play overall.”
Herron’s round consisted of one birdie coming on the par 4, 5th hole and only two bogeys coming on the par 3, 10th hole and the par 4, 11th.
Herron joins Nancy Fitzgerald and Julie Carmichael in winning this event three times.
"I think it’s a really special achievement to win three times,” Herron said. "When I think of Indiana Golf I think of Nancy and Julie. To be considered in their company is pretty special for me.”
Kristi Piepenbrink Trotter finished in third with a two day total of 8-over-par 152.
