The Chicago District Golf Association (CDGA) is off to great tournament start in 2017. First up the CDGA Amateurs defeated the Illinois PGA Professionals at the 56th Radix Cup Matches at Oak Park Country Club yesterday 10-8.

In the first CDGA Championship of the year, the CDGA Senior Amateur that was played at Ridge Country Club, saw Terry Werner win the championship by a 3&2 score over John Finin of Olympia Fields Country Club.

“This is the top of the list, the greatest win for me,” said Werner, after becoming the first non-Illinois resident to win a CDGA-sponsored amateur championship since 1954. “it’s just a great venue to play at and tournament to be in.”

After Werner got out of stroked play with a 74, he became the 5th seed for the match play. In the opening match Werner in the Round of 16 Werner recorded a hole-in-one.

Six straight pars in the championship match earned Werner a 3-UP lead. He closed out the match on 16, when the hole was halved.

WGN TV Sports anchor Dan Roan advanced to the quarterfinals before losing his match in 19 holes.

CDGA.org

THE CDGA MID-AM at Mistwood May 22-25.

Chadd Slutzky was the only player in red numbers in the stroke play qualifying with a 2 under Par 70. Slutzky then went on to win the match play with a 3&2 win over Brian Hickey. Slutzky never trailed in the match.

Slutzky was the 2015 Illinois State Mid-Amateur winner and he tuned up for this event with a win in the I-80 Amateur at The Sanctuary Golf Course, his final round was a 66.

“My swing has just been working,” said Slutzky. “I came out here on Monday for the stroke play and it continued. I’m just feeling good with my swing right now.”

In the championship match Slutzky took an early 2 UP lead after two holes, but it was gone two holes later. But after Hickey hit poor drives on 5 and 6, Slutzky won both holes with pars, and he led all the way in from there when the match finally ended on the 16th hole.

The CDGA has a full schedule of tournaments, to learn more about the rest of the schedule visit CDGA.org.

FINAL SCORE CDGA 10 IPGA 8

The CDGA Amateurs got back on the winning side of the Radix Cup matches contested at the Oak Park Country Club.

Almost of of the six matches went back and forth before they were decided. There was some great golf played on the newly improved OPCC, that is missing over 300 trees from this time last year, and the new white tour looks stunning on the golf course.

Now back to the golf as birdies and eagles came about through out the round, some holes a great “tailwind” and the players took advantage.

The Radix Cup named after the late Harry Radix.

The first match out was IPGA pro’s Kyle Bauer and Adam Schumacher vs CDGA amateur Paul Schlimm Jr. and Raymond Knoll.

The end result of the match was that it was halved and each side got 1 1/2 points.

Oak Park head professional Frank Bruno and partner Brain Carroll, had the lead most of the way against the amateur team of Tim Sheppard and Dave Ryan, (the 2016 USGA Sr. Am Champion). But Ryan hit a great approach on 18 that lead to winning the hole and the match. Scoring saw the pro’s get 1 point and the amateurs 2 points.

Match 3 saw the professionals retake control of the scoreboard when Chris Green and Brian Janty helped the IPGA side to 2 1/2 point, giving the amateurs just a 1/2.

Match 4 saw a comeback on the back nine by amateurs Kyle Nathan and Chadd Slutzky, to earn a full three points against University of Illinois Coach Mike Small and Skokie pro Garrett Chaussard, just back from US Open qualifying in Ohio.

That trend continued in Match 5 when the CDGA Amateurs rolled to another 3-0 sweep of the professionals. Charlie Netzel and Kyle Slattery grabbed a 6 UP lead the turn over Travis Johns and Matt Slowinski and never looked back.

The final match was a 3-0 win by the professional team of Brian Brodell and Frank Hohenadel both of Mistwood GC, they defeated the team of Andy Johnson and Steve Sawtell.

Click here to hear interviews with CDGA players Chadd Slutzky and Dave Ryan, IPGA and Oak Park head golf professional Frank Bruno talks the Radix Cup and the mew look Oak Park Country Club.

The official record between the sides after 56 years of playing now stands at, Professionals 35, Amateurs 19 victories and there have been two ties.

THAT SIGH OF RELIEF you just heard all the way from Erin Hills to Far Hills in New Jersey, was the USGA and it’s full staff relieved that they won’t be run out of the State of Wisconsin for not letting Steve Stricker in next weeks U.S. Open. The media was ready to pounce. Expect a few thousand more tickets sold tomorrow, now that Stricker is in.

Much to the relief of many, Sticker won the USGA Sectional he played in today at 10 under par. Of 106 players, there was 8 spots up for grabs, and Sticker grabbed the top spot. Problem Solved.

It appears that Wisconsin’s Jordan Niebrugge is in as well, which along with Stricker will keep the bars open late tonight. On a sad note neither of the two finalists from the 2011 U.S. Amateur at Erin Hills made it out of qualifying today. So there will not be a Kelly Kraft or Patrick Cantlay sighting at Erin Hills.

FROM THE LOCAL SCENE the news was not much better. Andy Pope with roots in Glen Ellyn did survive and make the open field. Doug Ghim of Arlington Heights is a second alternate, but not likely to get in. The University of Illinois saw it players Nick Hardy and Dylan Meyer play well, but not well enough. Former teammate Charlie Danielson a Wisconsin guy, did not get in either. Skokie Country Club professional Garrett Chaussard came up short. So did Erin Hills professional Rich Tock.

LUKE DONALD played well and so did Mark Wilson, the local PGA Tour pro’s were under par, but not far enough under to make the field. Vince India of Deerfield did not make it in, neither did defending Rust-Oleum Champion Max Homa. IPGA Pro Dan Kochevar’s son Kyle Kochevar did not get in There were a few other Illinois players from other parts of the state that fell short as well.

SECTIONAL LOCATIONS NOT POPULAR with the players. I heard over a dozen complaints from various players that were playing in today’s qualifiers about the poor locations of this years sectionals. Two sectionals in Ohio, Why? There should be at least one in Illinois, with so many Illinois and Wisconsin and Indiana players that were playing today. USGA, lets revisit that plan in 2018.

WHAT WILL BE POPULAR is that USGA has announced that the U.S. Open merchandise tent will be open this week from Thursday to Sunday, from 10 Am to 6 Pm for shopping. You do not need a ticket for the open to go shopping this week, if you want to give the USGA your money, they will gladly take it. So come on in and spend.

THE USGA, FOX SPORTS and TOP GOLF have announced a nation wide watch party at all Top Golf locations during championship week, visit all three websites for more details.

AROUND TOWN..prior to Erin Hills teeing off next week thereis some good golf in town here this week. The Radix Cup that features the top CDGA Amateur’s vs our Illinois PGA section professionals is Wednesday afternoon at Oak Park CC, admission is free. Starting on Thursday is the Rust-Oleum Championship at Ivanhoe Country Club in the town of Mundelein. Fans won’t be admitted until Round 1 on Thursday.

We are still working on our show for Saturday and which US Open guests will be on, more on that as we get the confirmations. The Gog Blog returns tomorrow. RS

This golf course is not tricky, but has a Scottish style that leaves the course right in front of the golfer.
