Hughes' capture
Father & Son Championship in playoff

Bedford, Pa. – Over a hot and humid two days at the Omni
Bedford Springs Resort, 48 Father & Son duos competed at the 5th
Father & Son Championship on July 22-23.
Jim and JD Hughes, Carlisle Country Club, shot a two round total of
10-under-par 68-66-134 on the par 72 layout to tie clubhouse leaders David and
Marshall Brown, St. Clair Country Club.
The Brown’s closed strong Wednesday with the low round of the
championship and ended with a total of 70-64-134. On the first playoff hole, No. 18 (par 4, 356
yards) JD Hughes rolled in a 15-footer for a birdie to claim ownership of
the Davis Cup, named in honor of William R. Davis and Mike Davis.
It is safe to say that the 18th green is a new
favorite for JD Hughes. Not only did he
sink the 15-footer for birdie to win the playoff, but he also drained a longer
one to force the playoff with the Brown’s, who finished in the group ahead. David and Marshall made an astounding 10
birdies on the day, including five in a row from #13-17. After a brief weather delay while playing their final hole, a crucial up-and-down was needed to post the clubhouse lead.
Asked to sum up the day, Jim Hughes said, “The big thing was
we got around today with no bogeys, and we missed just one green and were able
to get up-and-down. JD hung in there all
day and made some clutch putts, and even though it wasn’t his best putting day, he
saved the best for last, which was great.”
JD Hughes added, “We got off to a great start, turned at 4-under for the
day, then let some opportunities slide on the back. Obviously, the last two putts were cool, it
was awesome.”
The first round leaders, Arnold and Arnie Cutrell,
Greensburg Country Club, played two solid rounds of golf and finished in third
place at 9-under-par 67-68-135, just one shot back.
Taking home 1st place for lowest Net score were
David and Parker Lucas, Greensburg Country Club, with a net 130. Second place Net was won by Joe Ruby,
Nemacolin Woodlands Resort, and Marc Ruby, Uniontown Country Club, who finished
with 131. There was a tie for third Net
at 133 between Ken and Zack Ross, Hannastown Golf Club, and Dan and Daniel Woods, Olde Stonewall.
