Bosworth - Waller Win Final Event of 2010

The tour season wrapped up August 15 at The Harvester in Rhodes with the Iowa Golf Tour Championship.  Jonathan Bosworth and Blake Waller smoked the field with a one-under-par 71 in the best ball format, beating Chad Brandhorst and Ryan Burry by nine strokes.  Bill Eichhorst and Steve Lawrence finished third.  

The highlight of the tournament came on number 14, when Elizabeth Marchant used a six iron from 145 yards out to ace the hole.  It was her second hole-in-one in less than two months!  She also carded an ace at Firethorn Golf Club in Lincoln, Nebraska earlier in the summer.  Her hole-in-one was the third in the history of the Iowa Golf Tour and the first by a woman.
