Bob Benser Ends Federico’s 3 Win Winning Streak For his First Victory

The Players at the Wellington Shootout were faced with the same conditions as the PGA tour players at the Honda Classic. Bob Benser, Jason Lambert, Jesse Amaya and Shauna Federico had to make the same decisions as to wind speeds as Tiger Woods, Justin Rose, Ricky Fowler and Rory Mcilroy. With the Honda Classic being held just a few miles north on the east coast of Florida from the Wellington shootout all players were faces with the challenging win conditions.

Shauna Federico entered the event with a three win winning streak and she found herself in position for a fourth in a row after nine holes. Shauna was in second place only two strokes behind Bob Benser. But Bob would not be denied. It took an 83 year old veteran to stop Shauna’s win streak and he knew to continue the pressure on the back nine.

Bob almost lost it on the 18th par four Island green taking three shoots to finally making it on safely, but with Shauna recording a 10 on the hole, Bobs 8 only increased his margin of victory. 2005 Jason Lambert squeaked out a second place finish with the door that Shauna Opened on 18. Jason Shot a gross 79 and recorded a 6 on 18 to edge out Shauna by one.

Shauna maintains her fist place status on the S. Florida Order of Merit with 607 points  and Bob’s Victory moved him two spots to 2nd place with 425 points. Lambert moved up three spots to 5th.
