Shane McCloud teamed with John Cunningham (not pictured) to win the May 25 stop at White Plains Golf Course on the Scramble Tour sponsored by Miller Light. McCloud, knowing he had just one chance since Cunningham had left the course not aware his team had scored enough, holed his attempt during a putt off to capture the win after tying with the duo of Jim Krautkramer and Bob Weaver at 21 points in the modified Stableford system used by the Tour.
Cunningham and McCloud made 6 pars, 1 bogey, and two birdies on the back nine to gain their 21 points and the winners’ prize courtesy of the host course.
