2023 Governors Towne Club Tournament Results

The Amateur Players Tour-Atlanta hosted a sold-out field of 60 players at Governors Towne Club in Acworth, GA. A big thank you to the staff of Governors Towne Club for treating our members as they would their own. 

Division 1 was a close battle most of the round with four different players either holding the lead or being one shot back at any given time. Jordan Jones, visiting from the Birmingham Chapter, played the last four holes in one under and posted a score of 73. TJ Elgin and Charles Hartley both needing match that, played the final four in even to give Jordan is first victory in Division 1. Jordan was crowned champion and awarded a $220 Visa Gift Card.
