Olsen & Hamberger Win 20th MGA Senior Net Four-Ball Tournament

BASKING RIDGE, N.J. (May 14, 2012)Alley Olsen and Bill Hamberger of Blue Hill Golf Association fired a 10-under 62 to win the 20th MGA Senior Net Four-Ball Tournament at New Jersey National Golf Club in Basking Ridge, N.J. Olsen and Hamberger were one of five teams that came in with 62, but won due to the tie breaker that goes to the team with the greater total age.

A steady rain throughout the morning and afternoon made for difficult scoring conditions as many of the teams were unable to put together complete rounds. The course, a par 72 that played 6,260 yards, was guarded by thick rough which got heavier as the day wore on.
