The cream rose to the top this past Saturday at Buckingham Golf and Country Club during the playing of the 33rd annual Lake County Open Golf Championship.  Matt Wotherspoon ran away from the rest of the field by shooting a -4 under par 68 to win by seven shots.  It was Matt’s third Lake County Open title having previously won last year’s Open as well as the one held in 2020.

I played a lot of amateur golf in my formative years long before the initial days of the Lake County Amateur Golf Circuit in 1994.  As a kid I used to tee it up in the Chicago Amateur, a colorful event first contested at Jackson Park Golf Course in 1904.
