TEAM ORLANDO WINS 2018 GOLFWEEK AMATEUR TOUR TEAM CUP

 FRANK, MORITZ, CLEARY, MARSHALL, DAVIS, DELAROSA, AND CREESE TOP INDIVIDUALS

I want to thank all the members of the Golfweek and Senior Amateur Tour / Orlando for another successful year:  I know those that went to Hilton Head this year had a great time and are already looking to qualify again next year.  We hope those of you who could not go this year can qualify to represent us next year on the national stage. For the second time in tour history (2006 was the first), Orlando won the Team competition.  Twenty-seven teams competed for the trophy.  Using 10 scores each day (2 from each fight) Orlando edged Charlotte by 5 strokes after 3 rounds.  That's very close!  Don't let anyone tell you that every stroke doesn't count--it does.  Congratulations to our players.
