Jordan Pomeranz wins 2nd Brick Capital Classic Title

Jordan Pomeranz parred the 2nd playoff hole to win the 45th Brick Capital Classic over AJ Johnson this weekend at Sanford Golf Club.   Both players fired identical rounds of 70-69 for a two-day total of 3 under par 139 to finish at the top of the 153-player field.   Both players made par at #1 – with Johnson rolling in a 10-footer to keep the playoff alive before Pomeranz stuck his approach close at the 2nd for an easy par and the win.

Pomeranz led the tournament by two at 5 under through 14 holes, but a triple bogey 7 put Pomeranz chasing Johnson the remainder of the day.   Pomeranz eventually rolled in a tricky downhill eight-footer at the last to tie Johnson – who failed to get up-and-down for birdie from the rough left of the green.    Steve Pippen also flirted with the lead briefly on Sunday, but a late bogey put him at 140 – and one shot out of the playoff. 

2016 winner Paul Jett led a group that finished at even par after rounds of 69-73 that included Jeremy Milton (71-71) and Defending Champion Press McPhaul (71-71).  

Courtney Stiles led after round one with a 67 – shot 76 on Sunday – and finished at +1 for the tournament.   Stiles was awarded the Zeb Harrington Award for low round Saturday and Walter Brinker won the Bobby Powell Award for low round Sunday with a 67.
