Peck prevailed 7-and-6 over Hans Reimers to win the title
BANDON, Ore. (July 11, 2013) -- Texas A&M
golfer Cameron Peck, of Olympia, Wash.
continued his stellar 2013 summer by winning
the
112th Pacific Northwest Men’s Amateur
Championship, held at Bandon Dunes Golf
Resort
in Bandon, Ore. Peck defeated Hans Reimers of
Albany, Ore. in the Final match, 7 and 6. The
36-
hole match was contested on the resort’s
Bandon
Dunes and Bandon Trails courses.
The championship, which started with an elite
field
of 168 amateurs, was conducted by the Pacific
Northwest Golf Association. For complete

Peck had a dominating and relentless march
through the bracket, winning yesterday’s
Quarterfinal match 6 and 5 and Semifinal
match 4
and 3. In his Quarterfinal match he was 7-
under
par when the match ended after the 13th hole.
In
today’s Final, he shot 5-under 67 in the
morning
round to take a 3-up lead, and was 2-under in
the
afternoon round when the match ended after
30
holes.
Reimers kept pace early on, matching four
birdies
with Peck on the opening nine, but his putter
began to falter, leading to costly three-putts
at
the end of the morning round.
Last month Reimers won the Oregon Open, and
is
also playing well this summer season. He will be
a
fifth-year senior on the golf team at Mercer
University in Georgia, where he transferred to
after the University of Portland dropped its golf
program. His caddie for this week, Jake
Wagner,
was his former team mate at Portland.
“I had a great week,” said Reimers,
who was the No. 2 seed and had come from
behind to win his Semifinal match. “I’ve been
playing well, and Cameron definitely deserved
his
win.”
Last month Peck won the Washington State
Amateur, which was held at Chambers Bay in
University Place, Wash. A links layout with
fescue
grasses, Chambers Bay prepared Peck for this
week’s championship at Bandon Dunes, known
for
its links courses and hard, fescue fairways. “I
had
never been to Bandon Dunes before (this
week),”
said Peck.
“On the final day at Chambers, the
wind
blew really hard, and I realized I really needed
to
figure out how to hit knock-down shots.”
Along with the knock-down shots, Peck
brought
his power game to Bandon, consistently
outdriving
his opponents and reaching every par-5 in two
shots.
Peck won the 2008 U.S. Junior Amateur, and
recently completed his collegiate playing
career at
Texas A&M. He has qualified to play in this
year’s
U.S. Amateur Public Links, and intends to play
in
the PGA Tour’s Q-School this fall.
Bandon Dunes Golf Resort has previously
hosted
this championship in 2000, and it was won by
current PGA Tour player Jeff Quinney.
First held in 1899, the Pacific Northwest Men’s Amateur is one of the country’s longest running amateur championships. Held annually at world-class courses throughout the Pacific Northwest, this championship is played in the same format as the U.S. A...
