McCoy Dominates Final Round to Win US Masters Championship

The stage was set for a thrilling conclusion to the 2018 Tim Selinske US Masters Championship. With cloudy skies and a gentle breeze providing a perfect backdrop, the top contenders in both the Pro Masters 40+ and Pro Masters Women 40+ divisions took to the challenging Lemon Lake Disc Golf Center course.

In the women's division, Courtney McCoy had a lot on her mind as she stepped up to tee off on the final round. With a two-stroke cushion over Lesli Todd and Melinda Ring, McCoy knew that she couldn't afford any mistakes if she wanted to take home the title. However, it quickly became apparent that she was more than ready for the challenge.

McCoy wasted no time in pulling away from her competitors, picking up two strokes on Todd through the first four holes and maintaining a comfortable lead throughout the front nine. But as the pressure mounted with only half of the round remaining, McCoy shifted into high gear, carding an impressive run of birdie-par-birdie-birdie on holes 7-10 to extend her lead from four to seven strokes.

Despite Todd's valiant efforts to close the gap, McCoy's momentum proved too great to overcome. With a tap-in par on the final hole, she secured her second career PDGA Major victory and cemented her place as a top contender in the Masters Women's division.

Meanwhile, in the men's division, JohnE McCray had already established himself as the one to beat after a dominant performance on Saturday. And with a comfortable lead over Rob Ryan, Mike Moser, and Barry Schultz going into the final round, it seemed unlikely that anyone would be able to catch him.

Indeed, the quartet played some of the most impressive golf seen in recent memory, with only a single bogey between them for the entire 18-hole round. McCray's flawless play was all but guaranteed to secure his second PDGA Major win, and he didn't disappoint, finishing off the round with a birdie on hole 18.

The battle for second place proved more intense, with Moser eventually edging out Ryan by a single stroke after a thrilling back-and-forth finish. Schultz rounded out the podium with a solid performance, but ultimately fell just short of claiming his first US Masters title.

As the dust settled on another thrilling championship event, one thing was clear: both McCoy and McCray are forces to be reckoned with in their respective divisions, and fans can't wait to see what they have in store for us next.
