Price won the Illinois State Mid-Amateur in 2014 by two shots, and now he is a two-time winner by two shots once again
History repeated itself for Andrew Price in the Illinois State Mid-Amateur Championship Tuesday at Park Ridge Country Club.
In 2014, the then-32-year-old closed out his first State Mid-Am triumph, winning by two strokes.

“It feels good. I’ve been close the last couple of years and didn’t get it done,” Price said, alluding to one-stroke runner-up finishes in 2023 and 2022. “It was nice to play well enough to win.”
Entering Tuesday’s 18-hole finale tied with Mounce atop the leaderboard and four others being within two strokes, Price quickly seized control.
A wedge to tap-in distance at the first and accompanying circles on the par-5 third and par-4 sixth set the tone for Price’s ascension.
