Monday marked back-to-back weeks for the WPGA Pro-Am Four-Player Pro-Am Series. After the rescheduled Suter Ward Group at Morgan Stanley Pro-Am kicked off the month of July last week, the series made the trek to Stevens Point Country Club for the Wilson Golf Pro-Am.

It was the first time the series had made a stop in Stevens Point since SentryWorld hosted in 2018.

Flying up the leaderboard and earning the win was the foursome of Ryan Helminen, Matt Butch, Scott Merzlicker and Ze Vue. They carded a 19-under-par 125 to win by one shot over the Craig Czerniejewski led team. Each player did their part over the course of the day in the one net and one gross best ball format. In total they piled up eighteen net birdies and three net eagles.

For Helminen his 38 stableford points would tie him with Matt Hartmann and Joe Leonard for the low professional victory.

The low senior professional contest was also closely contested, as Brad Lanning came out on top with 37 stableford points.

A big thank you goes out to Wilson Golf, Harris Golf Cars and Elijah Craig for their support of Monday's event. We'd also like to thank Stevens Point Country Club for being a gracious host.

After a soggy month of June, the Wisconsin PGA and all the golf courses in the state were ready for a fresh start with the calendar flipping over to July. One of the casualties of the inclement weather in June was the postponement of the Suter Ward Group At Morgan Stanley Pro-Am at Bishops Bay Country Club.

Fortunately, just four weeks later the club would welcome the event back on Monday. Another sold-out field of twenty-nine teams would enjoy a picture-perfect day.

Taking home the title was the home club group of John Shipshock, Jason Hatch, Jerin Zander and Shawn Kriewaldt. They would go low, carding a 21-under-par 131 total in the 1,2,3 net best ball format. They would not play one hole over par and the par 5s would also be a huge factor.

Finishing just two shots behind the winning squad was the Andy Hansen led The University Club of Milwaukee group.

Leading the way in the low professional stableford contest was the trio of John Knoll, Kyle Kroener and Joe Leonard. Each player would pile up 39 points and card an impressive 3-under-par 69. Just one point back was the low senior professional, David Roesch.

A big thank you goes out to Vince Suter and The Suter Ward Group At Morgan Stanley for their continued support of the Wisconsin PGA. We'd also like to recognize and thank supporting partners, the American Family Insurance Championship, the Wisconsin State Golf Association and Tito's Handmade Vodka.

Our gratitude also goes out to the membership and staff at Bishops Bay Country Club. Their willingness to reschedule the event is very much appreciated.

Monday brought us a beautiful day for golf as WPGA Classic #3 visited the Links Course at the The Golf Courses of Lawsonia.

It marked the third one-day stroke play event of the year and provided the biggest field for the event since 2007.

With ideal scoring conditions the day was ripe for someone to go low. That individual would be University Club of Milwaukee Head PGA Professional Andy Hansen. The former UW-Parkside player would pile up seven birdies and just one bogey on the way to a 6-under-par 66.

The win comes on the heels of a runner-up finish at the WPGA Match Play Championship and top-five finishes at the other two one-day classics.

Finishing in second place with a 3-under-par 69 was Chris Zachman of Milwaukee Country Club.

A big thank you goes out to our event partners, the PGA TOUR, the Wisconsin State Golf Association and Hole-in-One USA. We'd also like to express our gratitude to everyone at The Golf Courses of Lawsonia.

The WPGA Four-Player Pro-Am Series was back on course on Monday for the annual playing of the National Golf Graphics, LLC Pro-Am. This year's edition would visit Abbey Springs Golf Course just outside of Lake Geneva.

A great spot to enjoy a summer day, the players were greeted with warm, muggy and breezy conditions.

The event would again feature the always fun and challenging team net stableford format. The low three net scores on each hole would count towards the team point total.

Running away with this year's title was the group of Foy Swenson, Tim Halverson, Andy Sturmberg and Ron Fryer. They would accumulate 169 stableford points. Each player would do their part as they all would pile at least 40 points a piece. It would turn out to be a record margin of victory in this format.

Swenson would lead the way for the group as he'd also earn wins in the low professional and low senior professional event with his 41 points.

A big thank you goes out to Peter Meyer and National Golf Graphics, LLC for their continued sponsorship of the event. We'd also like to recognize everyone at Abbey Springs for being a gracious host.
