Austin City Championship: Noonan wins his 2nd
AUSTIN, Texas (Aug. 5, 2007)-- LSU senior Brian Noonan became only the seventh golfer in the 80-year history of the Austin City Championship to win back-to-back titles with his even-par final day in gusty conditions at the Roy Kizer Golf Course.
He finished at 11-under-par 274, good for a three stroke victory over Michael Cooper, who won the tourney in 2000 and 2003.
Noonan, who held off Robby Ormand in a playoff to take last year's title, took the tournament twice in a row for the first time since Ed Brooks completed the feat in 1992-93.
