PETER SENIOR RETAINS AUSSIE PGA LEGENDS' TOUR CHAMPIONSHIP
FROM THE AUSTRALIAN PGA WEBSITE
Peter Senior has made it back-to-back Australian PGA Legends Tour Championships with a dominant victory at Byron Bay Golf Club.
Senior finished ten shots clear of his nearest rival after rounds of 65, 65 and 71 for a 15-under-par total of 201.
Playing near flawless golf, Senior (pictured) showed to class that has made him a household name in Australian golf and a feature player on the US Champions Tour.
“I played great the first two days. The course is in great shape and a real joy to play”
Senior's only two bogeys for the entire tournament came in his third and final round. However; the title was never in doubt with the consistent and composed Senior cruising to victory.
“Today was a struggle but I scrambled well. If Gary (Burmister) had made a few more birdies early it might have been different but I couldn’t fault my game over the first two days”.
Burmester finished in outright second, posting the best final round with a two under par round of 70 which highlighted the test of golf offered by the Byron Bay course.
The tournament is the final event of the 2013 EZGO Legends Series which also culminated with David Merriman (NSW) winning the Order of Merit after an impressive year on the circuit. Merriman’s earnings have seen him finish up the season with total earnings of $64,521.47 for 2013.
After a well deserved break over Christmas, players will commence the 2014 circuit with the Col Crawford BMW Legends Pro-Am at Bayview Golf Club on January 13.
