JUPITER, Fla. – Dominick Vennari of Baltimore, MD, and Stuart, FL, birdied his first three holes, bogeyed the fourth, then held on the rest of the way Thursday for his fifth victory on the Minor League Golf Tour. At seven under par 64, Vennari edged Brant Peaper of nearby Tequesta by a stroke, making five birdies on his last 12 holes, at Nos. 7, 9, 10, 16 and 17. Peaper made three birdies on each nine, did not have a bogey but still, at 65, was a stroke short of his seventh MLGT win.
Vennari collected $1,100 from the $7,880 purse. Peaper totaled $1,131, including $700 out of the main purse, $231 from an optional bonus pool and $200 in a skins game.
