Garland Ferrell and Robbie Biershenk Named Champions of the 56th SCGA Four-Ball
CLINTON, SC (May 28, 2023) – Garland Ferrell and Robbie Biershenk held off the team of Duane Burkhart and Jonathan Brazeal with a 3&2 victory to win the 2023 SCGA Four Ball Championship at Musgrove Mill Golf Club.
Playing in a cold drizzling rain for the majority of the round, both teams found birdies tough to come by. Burkhart got the first of the day on the par three second hole making a 12-foot birdie putt to take an early one up lead. After tying the next three holes, Burkhart and Brazeal faltered making bogies on the par four sixth and the tough par three seventh holes. Ferrell and Biershenk maintained their one up lead until a Ferrell birdie on the par five thirteenth gave them a two-up lead. A birdie three by Biershenk on the 15th put the team up by their final winning margin as they tied the final hole for 3 & 2 victory.
