ORLANDO – Christina Surcey’s par on the second playoff hole lifted her to a victory over Jessica Guiser in the girls division of the Golfweek International Junior Invitational at Eagle Creek Golf Club.
Surcey, a high school junior from Cartersville, Georgia, fired rounds 66-70–136 on the par-73 layout, but still needed to sink a 15-foot downhiller for birdie on the final hole of regulation to force the playoff. Guiser, who trailed Surcey by four shots with 10 holes to play before mounting a furious rally, finished with rounds of 68-68–136. Both players bogeyed the first playoff hole, and when Guiser failed to get up-and-down for par on the second playoff hole, Surcey notched the victory.
