Kelly captures first senior title

August 28, 2017 By Bill Scott

Madison’s Jerry Kelly captured his first Champions Tour title in 13 starts by winning the Boeing Classic in Snoqualmie, Washington.

Kelly shot a 6-under par 66 to finish a tournament record 19-under 197.  Kelly tied Jerry Smith for the lead with a birdie on the par-4 16th hole and moved ahead with a 15-foot birdie put on the par-3 17th.

The win moved Kelly up to 11th in the Schwab Cup standings with $762,277.  It ends a 8-year drought for Kelly, who last won the PGA Tour’s Zurich Classic of New Orleans in 2009.

Fox Point native Skip Kendall (72) tied for 41st.

Johnson wins in a playoff

Dustin Johnson trailed Jordan Spieth by five strokes early in the round.  Johnson ended up winning The Northern Trust in Old Westbury, New York in a playoff.

The top 100 golfers in the Fed Ex Cup point standings advance to this weeks even at TPC Boston.
