Ryan Howison Wins Weather Shortened Event
May 22, 2008
Jupiter, Fla. - Ryan Howison was awarded the victory after an afternoon storm halted play during Thursday's event at Abacoa Golf Club. He had a score of 42, three under par for 11 holes, the number of holes the days last group had finished when play was suspended.
Howison, who lives in Abacoa, was four under par for 16 holes. Steve Hart, who had finished at four under par 68, was two under par for his first eleven holes--tied for second place with Brian Anderson.
Thursday's rain shortened event was the fifth time (in over 400 playing days) since the tour was founded in 2004 that an event did not go the distance and the Offical Tournament guidelines, as follows, were applied.
The goal of The Minor League Golf Tour is to complete scheduled events. The tournament committee and players will make their best effort to complete each round and tournament as scheduled. If the entire field completes at least 50% of the scheduled event (9 holes of an 18 hole event, 18 holes of a 36 hole event) it will be considered an Official Tournament. The total number of holes counted will be equal to the number that the final group completes.
There was $270 in the skins pot with three $90 skins out. Steve Hart birdied #3, Matt Abbott birdied #4 and Scott Ford birdied #9.

In regulation, Auterson eagled the par-5 13th
hole on the West course and added four birdies and five bogeys.
A two-shot swing at the 18th hole proved decisive as Auterson
birdied to win by 71-72 when, a few minutes later, Kris Lim of Coral
Springs bogeyed. Lim had three birdies and as many bogeys.
Auterson earned $550, Lim $450, from the $2,550 purse.
Dave Clodfelter was third by himself at one over par 73 in only his second
event since becoming a father of twin boys.

PALM CITY, Fla. – Matt Abbott of Endwell,
N.Y., made four birdies on each nine Monday enroute to a seven under par
65 to win a Minor League Golf Tour event on the Crane Creek course at
Martin Downs Country Club. Abbott sandwiched his only bogey of the
day at the par-4 ninth hole with birdies at Nos. 1, 4, 5 and 6, then at
the 10th, 11th, 13th and 18th
holes.
It was Abbott’s seventh MLGT title, his
second this year following a victory Jan. 28 on Martin Downs’ adjacent
Osprey Creek course. He earned $900 from the $4,750 purse.
Brett Bergeron, playing in his first MLGT event, shot four under par 68
for solo second place followed by Tim Cantwell and Steve Burns who tied
for third at three under par 69. Marc Mazza and Kip Byrne posted 70
and Adam Condello was alone in seventh at one under par 71.
David Ladd and Derrick Bohannon were at even par 72, earning $225 each.
It was enough for Bohannon to overtake Steve Lebrun on top of the 2008
MLGT Money List.
The 42nd tournament of the year,
and the 340th since the MLGT started in August, 2004, drew 39
starters. Two more 18-hole events are scheduled this week, Wednesday
at the West Palm Beach GC and Friday at the CC of Miami. Spots are
still available for the last of three 54-hole spring series tournaments
will be played next week, Tuesday-Thursday, on the Estate course at PGA
