2023 Muscle Shoals Golf Tournament Results

On Father’s Day weekend, players travelled to Muscle Shoals, AL to compete for prizes totaling over $10,600.  Ninety-five players teed it up over two days at the Fighting Joe and Schoolmaster courses on the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail.  The event was hosted by the Birmingham, Memphis and Nashville chapters. The play was extremely competitive all weekend and extra holes needed for two divisions. 

In Division 1, John Cacchio from Nashville posted back-to-back rounds of 73 to finish with a two-day total of 146 and claim 1st place by one stroke over Luke Smith (73-74) from Covington.  Ed McDugle (74-74) from Memphis and Tommy Jean (77-71) from Sumiton, AL both finish in a tie for 3rd place. 

In Division 2, a three hole, three-way playoff was required to decide the winner. Sean Pierce (78-76) from Marietta, GA made three straight pars in the playoff to capture the 1st place trophy over Lee Edwards (78-76) from Birmingham, AL and James Davis (76-78) from Roswell, GA. 

In Division 3, Shawn Powers (77-86) from Athens, GA led wire-to-wire and captured the win by one stroke.
