Patrick Brown Dominates at U.S. Masters Championship

Patrick Brown's incredible skills on the green were on full display as he dominated the competition to win his third U.S. Masters championship in MP50 at the 2021 PDGA Tim Selinske U.S. Masters Championship. After completing a wire-to-wire victory, Brown was overcome with emotion on the 18th hole at Harmony Bends, reflecting on the long journey and hard work that led him to this moment of triumph.

"This feels really good – these things are not easy to come by," Brown said in an interview after his win. "I'm happy, a little at a loss for words, and a little emotional." He noted that opportunities like this don't come around often, and he felt grateful to have been able to seize it.

The U.S. Masters Championship was just one of several exciting events held during the week in Columbia, Missouri. In total, 22 Major champions were crowned, each of whom demonstrated exceptional skill and dedication to their craft.

Barrett White took home a championship in FP50 with an impressive comeback performance, while Doug Williams emerged victorious in MP55 after building a strong lead in his third round. Eric Rainey won by three strokes in MP60, thanks in part to a scorching hot round of 58 on Sunday at Harmony Bends.

Other notable winners from the week include Randy Beers, who took home an eight-stroke victory in MP65, and Laurie Cloyes-Chupa, who completed a Masters sweep in FP65. Dr. Rick Voakes was also crowned a champion in MP70, adding to his impressive collection of wins.

On the amateur side, Scott Houska dominated with a wire-to-wire victory in MA40, while Meg Sapp won by five strokes over Sarah Hibbs in FA40. Sam Dodd added another title to his collection with a 13-stroke win in MA50, and Debbie Polkinghorne secured her spot as champion of FA50.

James Elkins also put on an impressive display, securing a five-stroke win over Jerry Dobbins in MA55 after shooting a blistering 49 on Sunday. Joe Jaegers saved his best for last, posting the hot round of 52 to take home a two-stroke win in MA60.

Finally, Don Altmyer and Donald Parker wrapped up their victories early in MA65 and MA70, respectively, capping off an action-packed week at the U.S. Masters Championship.
