56th SCGA Four-Ball Championship
Musgrove Mill Golf Club
Clinton, SC
May 22-26, 2019
Kelley and Milner Take the Title
Bryan Kelley and Kyle Milner are your 2019 SCGA Four Ball Champions after a 2 up win over Thomas Addison, III and Weston Sanders at Musgrove Mill Golf Club in Clinton, SC.
On a hot and humid day, the only two teams left in the Championship went head to head to see who would walk away as the overall Champions. The team of Addison and Sanders got off to a quick start with an Addison birdie on the par three 2nd hole followed by a birdie four by Sanders on the par five 3rd hole to take an early 2 up lead. After poor tee shots from Addison and Sanders, a par on the 4th by both Kelley and Milner got their team back to within one. The next three holes were split with pars until Milner made a sliding birdie putt on the 8th to get back to all square. That didn’t last long however, as Milner and Kelley stumbled with bogies on the par five 9th. A Weston Sanders approach shot to 3 feet put the just recently former Presbyterian College player and his golf coach up 2 after eleven holes. Running out of holes to play, the Country Club of Spartanburg team of Kelley and Milner started grinding making birdie four on the par five 13th and a winning score of par on the 15th got the team back to even. The turn of the match happened on the par five 16th hole when Addison, putting for birdie, got the dreaded 360 degree lip out and Kelley’s birdie putt was conceded to put their team up one with two to play. After both teams made par on 17, Addison and Sanders were unable to convert par putts on the final hole to extend the match. A conceded par putt for Milner clinched the 2019 SCGA Four Ball Championship.
