THIRD ROUND
  • Hrabak was one of the three Monarchs to score a +3 in the final round. He had a great start to the round with two birdies in four holes, but along the way he recorded a quadruple bogey and three bogeys that countered his four total birdies on the round.
  • Aiden Spampinato played the cleanest round of any Monarch on Sunday. He started with a bogey on his first hole but parred his next eight before sinking a birdie to draw his score back to even par. After four more pars, Spampinato bogeyed three consecutive holes, then finished with one last par.
  • Chase Walts took a unique path to +3 on the round. The junior birdied three holes, bogeyed two and double bogeyed another two.
  • Posting his least successful round of the event, Cameron Cappuzzo double bogeyed twice on his way to recording a +4 on the round. The senior still finished in T15 for the event.
  • Doubling his total score from the first two rounds combined, David D'Agostino sank seven bogeys to one birdie, but also managed a triple bogey on his 15th hole.
