Walicki adds to resume with Arizona Players Cup title

WICKENBURG, Ariz. (Nov. 11, 2018) – Chalk up another title for Adam Walicki. The Phoenix, Ariz., resident came out on top at the Arizona Players Cup. Walicki opened with 5-under 66 at Wickenburg Ranch Golf Club and never looked back.

Caden Christopherson finished third another three shots back. Sunday was a much more colorful day for Walicki, as he took a triple-bogey 8 on the par-5 ninth. He rebounded by playing the back nine in even par.

Earlier this summer, Walicki won the San Diego City Amateur. He also qualified for this year’s U.S. Mid-Am and most recently, was T-27 at the Stocker Cup.
