PAUL SIMSON WINS COLEMAN
SENIOR INVITATIONAL, RECAP>
JUNO BEACH, Fla. (April 27, 2013) -- Mike
McCoy of West Des Moines, Iowa posted a
final round 71 to cap off a 5-under
performance for 54 holes at the 2013
Coleman Invitational at Seminole Golf Club.
McCoy, according to Seminole Golf Club
Director of Tournament Operations Eri Seguin,
played a nearly flawless round of golf en route
to a final round 71 and a three day total of
211.
The round of the tournament belonged to Skip
Berkmeyer who posted 66 to open on
Thursday, giving him the early lead by a
single
shot over
Parker Smith while McCoy lurked 3-shots out
of
the lead at 69. and was three shots up on
Mike McCoy.
Berkmeyer (second round 72) was able to
keep
pace with a surging leaderboard and remain at
the top entering the finale.
McCoy shot 71 on Friday and was alone in
second place while Kris Mikkelsen and Tim
Jackson, the defending champion, sat five
back
of the leader.
On Saturday, as Berkmeyer stumbled across
the always challenging and windswept
Seminole layout, McCoy (known for his deft
iron play and tour quality putting) hung steady
and wound up with a 7 shot margin and as the
only player under par. The four players that
tied for second included defending champ
Jackson.
ABOUT THE Coleman Invitational
One of the very best amateur events all year
long played on the last great private course
designed by Donald Ross. The course, not long
by
today's standards, lies hard by the Atlantic
Ocean. Oceanic winds and very fast greens
give
this course teeth. Ben Hogan once said 'If you
can play Seminole, you can play any course in
the world.'
The tournament is a 54-hole stroke play invitational
that draws an elite field of mid-
amateurs and seniors.
