WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. – Will Coleman of Palm Beach Gardens, FL, birdied the second extra hole to beat the eclipse and a 21-player field Monday at the West Palm Beach Golf Club to claim his 12th victory on the Minor League Golf Tour. Coleman outlasted Kristian Caparros of Hollywood, FL, after they tied at six under par 66, each scoring seven birdies and a bogey.
In the playoff, they halved the first hole with par-4's. Then at the par-5 second, Caparros reached the green in three after a pitchout from the rough and had an eight-foot putt for birdie. However, Coleman was pin-high right in two and pitched on to three feet. After Caparros missed his birdie attempt, Coleman sank his for the win.
Coleman collected $525 from the $2,450 purse. Caparros received $425 from the main purse and an additional $266 from an optional bonus pool for a total of $691. He has one career MLGT win.
Next on the MLGT schedule: Wednesday, TPC Eagle Trace, Coral Springs, and Thursday, Monarch CC, Palm City.
