Bob Benser Gives Victory to Dan Anderson

Bob Benser was two holes away from winning his 2nd event of the year. After recording a Net par on 16 Bob had 5 stroke lead with two holes to go. After hitting a perfect drive on 17 just 120 yards out from the green Bob pulled his approach shot just left which appeared to trickle into the woods.

After searching for 5 minutes and declaring the ball lost Bob went back and re hit his approach which landed in the side green bunker. This is where it went south.......As Bob approached the bunker he noticed his original ball approx 20 yards past where he was looking, After asking the official if he could use the original ball and was denied, Bob became frustrated and took three shots in the bunker before getting the ball onto the green. With a two putt Bob finally recorded a nine for a net quadruple bogie. With one hole to play Bob still had a one stroke lead. 

With a one stroke lead and getting a stroke on the par 5 18th All Bob needed to do was score an a 7 to force a playoff and a 6 to win. Bobs first drive went right into the woods forcing Bob to re-tee. Now shooting 3 Bob hit a beautiful shoot 200 yards in the middle of the fairway. He then followed with a great 4th shoot just 85 yards from the green. Needing to get up and down for the victory Bobs 5th shoot fell just inches from the green leaving a 40 foot chip to win. His chip and 6th shot just missed the cup and stopped two feet past the cup. With only a tap in for his 7th shoot to force a playoff Bob rimmed the putt and had to settle for an 8. Giving Dan Anderson another Victory.
