Davies Captures Michigan Amateur Golf Championship

The Freep reports that West Bloomfield's Greg Davies, 38, beat Ryan Brehm for the state's most prestigious amateur title, the 95th Michigan Amateur which was played this weekend at The Heather at Boyne Highlands. The last five winners of Michigan's highest honor for non-professional golfers have been in college or just graduated from high school.

For the best account of the match itself, described as "a grueling five-day test during which a player must finish in the top 64 - among 156 starters - after two rounds of medal play, then make his way through the match-play bracket, NCAA Tournament-style", check out Davies grinds out Michigan Amateur title in the Petoskey News-Review.
