Chris Enders Holds on for Victory as Rain and Strong Winds Visit the Enid, OK

12 June 2005 - Enid, OK - With rain overnight, course #2 in Enid, OK was wet but playable when the players arrived at the course Sunday morning. By the 11 a.m. tee-time, the course was dry but a light south wind was replaced by 35-40 mile per hour winds in the middle of the second round. By the end of the second round a hard rain started to fall resulting in a two-hour rain delay leaving all but three hole playable. The third round was started with a wind chill of nearly 50 degrees. Mid-way through the third round the rain returned.

Chris Enders had just eight aces in the tournament played the day before (June 11th) but he carded 10 aces in his first round for a three stroke lead. As the strong winds and rain came to the course, Enders could only manage one ace in his third round but held on for four stroke victory.

Amateur Scott Schuler played his first two rounds without a bogey stroke ended his third round with a costly bogey (his third of the final round) on his final hole. Danny Hoel who was playing in the same group and tied with Schuler going to the final hole managed a deuce on his final hole of play for the amateur victory.
