Angelillo shot a first-round 5-under 67 to take an early lead and propel him to the comfortable four-shot win
Gregg Angelillo of Baltusrol Golf Club won the 36th NJPGA/NJSGA Senior Open following an impressive second round, 2-under-par, 69, for a two-round total of 7-under-par 136, to win at Forsgate Country Club.
Angelillo, an amateur, came into day two with a two-stroke lead following a round of five-under par, 67 at Rossmoor Golf Club on Tuesday. Picking up where he left off, Angelillo stayed steady in the second round with a bogey-free round to hold off the field.
“I am ecstatic and so happy right now. I started off great and was hitting the ball close where I could make a few birdies on the front and give me a little space from the rest of the field,” said Angelillo. “On the back nine, I had some chances but really didn’t put myself in harm’s way. I was able to finish the day strong, not make a bogey and I think that’s how you win championships,” Angelillo said.
Coming off his Pre-Senior Championship win at Rossmoor in 2023, this is Angelillo’s first NJPGA/NJSGA Senior Open win. Joining him on the bag the past two days, Angelillo’s son, Michael, provided a sense of comfort for his father.
"He was important out there and is a great distraction for me. He keeps me focused and going. Even after I’d miss a putt, he would already have me onto the next shot,” said Angelillo. “It’s a special moment, I’m very lucky that I have a son that wants to do this and wants to spend time with me. I’m so proud that we were able to accomplish a few things and this is a big one. I’m psyched for him and really happy for all of us,” said Angelillo.
Coming in behind Angelillo was Jeff Maines, a professional at Spring Brook CC, who fired a second round score of three-under par, 68. Tied for third with a two-day score of two-under par, 141, was a trio of professionals: Andy Brock of Inspiration Golf Range, Rudy Virga of Bayonne GC and Frank Esposito of Mountain Ridge CC.
36 hole stroke play event open to both professional and amateur golfers. After the first round the field will be cut to the low 40 players and ties.
