The 2021 MIGCSA State Championship

MiGCSA Class A Member Troy Looney hosted the 14th annual State Championship, the MiGCSA Major, on September 15th at The Emerald G.C. in St. Johns. This event is not just for those competing for the trophy there is also a 1 of 4 net team event so everyone can get in the game. The course was really in remarkable condition thanks to the great work by Troy and his staff. The 2022 event was well contested with a few rounds in the 70’s on a tough layout and set up. In the end the 2020 Champion defended his title, Josh Shaw, Superintendent at Timber Trace in Pickney with a 69. The low net champion was Dylan MacMaster, Superintendent at Lochmoors C.C. who shot a net 69 to win. Congratulations to both of our individual winners! The best 1 of 4 net game was won by the team of Adam Garr, Dylan MacMaster, Doug Johanningsmeier and Doug Palm with a 59. The long drive was won by Josha Shaw. The closest to the pins were won by Derek Koster, Chet VanDenburg and Jay Eccleton who had a hole in one on #4! The longest putt on #18 was won by Adam Garr.

With this win Josh will be heading to the Michigan Open in 2022 thanks to the exemption offered thanks to the Michigan PGA. Thank you to our 2021 Industry Partners for making events like these possible.
