Auto Clearing Senior Men's Golf Championship
Rick Hallberg wins the 2024 Auto Clearing Senior Championship
After missing out by one stroke in 2023, Rick Hallberg came back to win the 2024 Championship in a playoff.over nine-time winner Colin Coben.
The Kenosee golfer had come close in every event since becoming eligible in 2018, but never won the top prize until this year. As always when trying to dethrone perennial champion Coben, it wasn't easy.
The two golfers tied for top spot with a 4-over 220 over three days, so needed a sudden death playoff which Hallberg won on the first hole.
Rick Hillestad won the newly instituted Super Senior trophy with a 230, 7 clear of runner-up Pat Murphy
All golfers enjoyed Chamber of Commerce weather during the three-day tournament although is was a little cool on Tuesday. The Moon Lake course was in great shape, and the meals, as always were delicious.
In a fitting finale, Chairman Brian Taylor was awarded the Ken Hart trophy for his dedicated leadership over the last 8 years.
