Bill Thompson Wins for Second Time in 2000
On Great Lakes Tour
26 August 2000 –
Mansfield, OH – After opening rounds of 27 and 24, Bill
Thompson's final round of 29 was enough to put him into the winner's
circle on the Great Lakes Tour for the second time in 2000. Thompson's
54-hole total of 80, 28-under par, gave him a two-stroke victory over Bill
Baus who also fired a 29 in his third round after opening the
tournament with rounds of 28 and 25 to be alone in second entering the
final round. Thompson's victory was worth $130 and moved him into the
lead on the Great Lakes Tour in both
money winnings and points for the year. Bill Baus' second place finish
earned him a medal-play qualifying spot in the Great Lakes Tour
Championship to be contested on the weekend of September 16th and 17th
in Charleston, WV.
Finishing alone in third
at 83, 25-under par, was Rich
Gillooly who fell to second on the Great Lakes Tour in both money
winnings and points with Thompson's victory. Alone in fourth was Kevin
Lacey at 84 and in fifth place was Dave
Nutini at 85.
In the match-play, Gene
Reams defeated Rick Alessi in the finals to earn an additional $40. Rick
Alessi earned the match-play qualifying spot for the Great Lakes Tour
Championship.
In the amateur division,
Andy McCoy used rounds of 29, 27, and 27 to post a three round score of
83 and a ten stroke victory. Tied for second at 93 were Jeff Brown and
