Tim Selinske US Masters Championships Crowned a Champion
Date Published
The excitement reached its peak at the 2014 Tim Selinske US Masters Championships, held at Mohawk Park in Tulsa, OK. The tournament's final day was filled with anticipation as world-class competitors vied for the top spot. Barry Schultz, sporting number #6840, took an early lead on Friday morning and successfully defended his position throughout the weekend.
As the competition progressed, Ken Climo (#4297) and Brian Schweberger (#12989) joined the fray, but Schultz's impressive performance ensured that he maintained a comfortable lead. However, JohnE McCray (#9852) made a stunning comeback during the fourth round at Hunter Park, shooting 10 birdies and an eagle to finish 12 under par.
McCray's remarkable recovery brought him within three throws of Schultz, setting the stage for an electrifying final showdown. The tension was palpable as the players took to the course on Sunday morning, with a tie for the lead emerging by the time they reached the sixth hole. But Schultz remained composed and regained his lead, expanding it to four strokes after a dramatic lightning delay.
The top four players – including McCray, Patrick Brown (#25713), Ken Climo, and Schultz – advanced to the finals at Redhawk course. The atmosphere was electric as the gallery watched the competitors navigate the open terrain. Although McCray put up an impressive fight, falling victim to the creek trap on hole 14 proved costly.
Schultz's steady performance ultimately secured his fourth win in five years at the Tim Selinske US Masters Championships. In a heartwarming moment, he dedicated his victory to his good friend and event namesake, Tim Selinske, saying "Thank you Tim! I miss you!" as he celebrated with tears in his eyes.
