Mackenzie Hughes and Frank Edwards won the gross division of the prestigious Seminole Pro-Member while Erik van Rooyen and John Pinkham took the net division title on Monday.
Van Rooyen began the day at Seminole Golf Club holding the clubhouse lead at the Cognizant Classic, which was completed on Monday following a weather suspension, and was about to leave the event and return to PGA National on the team’s eighth hole. However, he remained and posted a net score of 62 to win a scorecard playoff. The Cognizant Classic was won by Austin Eckroat, who finished at 17 under and three shots ahead of van Rooyen.
