BROCK MACKENZIE OF YAKIMA
,
WA, WINS 2002 PACIFIC
COAST AMATEUR BY ONE SHOT
2002 champion Brock Mackenzie
|
Brock Mackenzie of Yakima, WA, held off Dan Swanson of Surrey, British Columbia, by one shot to win the 36th Pacific Coast Amateur
Championship at San Diego Country Club in Chula Vista, CA.
Aided by a 2-under-par 70 from Jeff Wilson of Suisun, the Northern
California Golf Association held off
British Columbia
and the Metropolitan (NY) GA by two shots to win the Morse Cup Team
Competition. With the
best two of three individual scores counting each day for the team
total, the NCGA totaled 590 for four rounds to win the cup for the
second time in three years.
The 21-year-old Mackenzie, a second-team All-American as a sophomore
at the University
of
Washington
and the 2001 Washington State Amateur champion, became the second
Washington
state resident in a row to win the Pacific Coast Amateur (Corey
Prugh of Spokane
won in 2001).
Mackenzie was remarkably consistent throughout the tournament,
posting rounds of 70-71-70-72 -- 283, which was 5 under par over the 6,890-yard, par-72
layout.
Swanson tried to mount a charge but came up a shot short after a
final-round of 71 and a 284 total. Brian Hughes of
Portland, OR, and Keith Decker of Martinsville,
VA, finished another shot back.
"I never was in any real trouble all day," said Mackenzie
after his round. "I
just played solid golf again; in fact, it's amazing how similar my
rounds were all week."
Mackenzie had three birdies and three bogies on his round but
thought he blown the tournament when he bogied the 428-yard, par-5
finishing hole. "I
drove it in the left rough on a downslope," he said later but
before the rest of the field was in. "I had no chance to get to
the green. If I lose the
tournament because of that hole, it will leave a very sour taste in
my mouth."
Swanson almost made that prediction come true, but he bogied the
400-yard, par-four 15th hole and then left an eight-foot
eagle putt short on the par-five 16th.
When Swanson missed another eight-footer for birdie on the
closing hole, Mackenzie had dodged a bullet.
"I had my chances," Swanson, a senior at the University of
Texas-El Paso, "but just couldn't make enough putts.
I thought I finally had the speed of the greens down and then
left that eagle putt short."
Decker, too, had his chances but he could manage only pars on the
par-5 holes and then three-putted No. 17.
"Overall, I'm pleased with the way I played.
I'm glad this old guy was able to hang in there," said
the 42-year-old Decker. "I'm
old enough to the father to half of this field."
Matt
Bettencourt of Modesto, CA, who was in second place, two shots
behind Mackenzie to begin play today, made a triple-bogey 8 on the
second hole and never recovered, shooting a final-round 76.
Prugh, the defending champion, never threatened, finishing at
311 for 72 holes.
