IOWA WIFE-HUSBAND CHAMPIONSHIP
Lake Panorama GC, Panora
Glasford’s hold on for victory, Dethrow’s
make it three in a row
They were co-champions last year, but this year, Scot and Amy
Glasford held off Reed and Julianna Burkholder by one stroke to
become the outright champions of the 56th Iowa Wife-Husband
Championship.
The event was held at Lake Panorama National Golf Reort
in Panora. This was the first time in 13 years it was held
somewhere other than Burlington Golf Club.
After an opening round of 4-under par 68, the Glasfords fired
4-over par (76) on the final day of the championship to finish
with an even par, two-day total of 144. The Burkholders carded
a final round score of 72, although it wasn’t enough as the duo
finished at one-over par for the tournament at 145 (73-72).
In the Super Senior Division, Carroll and John Dethrow earned
their third straight title at the event by posting a two-day total of
160 (75-80). The Dethrows edged out one of the local couples,
Carla and Tim Fitzgerald, who posted 82-80 and finished in
second two strokes back.
The 57th Wife-Husband Championship will return to Lake
Panorama National Golf Course in 2017, September 15-17.
