VERONA – Even though the Turning Stone Resort Championship ended in nice, crisp, autumnal conditions, the grounds are still soggy and muddy. Not 2009 U.S. Open Bethpage mud, but mud nonetheless.  Lift, clean and place remained in effect Monday morning for the playoff between Vaughn Taylor, 33, and Matt Kuchar, 31.

NEWS AND NOTES FROM SATURDAY

October 3rd, 2009 fciarlo Posted in Men's | 1 Comment »

VERONA – It’s not a lock that either Matt Kuchar or Scott Piercy will win, even though they lead after 54-holes. This year on the PGA Tour, the third-round leader/co-leader has gone on to win 22 of 40 events (55%) this season. Dustin Johnson, last year’s Turning Stone winner, won the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am when it was reduced to 54 holes while Pat Perez won the Bob Hope Classic, a five-round event.
