To say Stephen Ames loves playing TPC Sugarloaf in Duluth Georgia is an obvious under statement.

With scores 71 64 67 -14 he was 4 shots clear of his nearest competitors Paul Broadhurst 67 67 72 -10 and Doug Barron 65 72 69 -10.

With 2 eagles in his final round he successfully defended his title in an event he won for the first time in 2017 and all on his 60th birthday this time around. !!

It is his second win of the season, the eighth of his Champions Tour career (6th in last 29 starts) and moves him atop the Charles Schwab Cup standings. 

Always a great ball striker Stephen has become a very good putter over the last 2 years, and he credits Canadian coach Shauheen Nakhjavani for working with him on the same key things. He says "refining it, getting it better to where I feel very comfortable now playing golf. It's nice, its just letting go, its much easier for me to let it go now."
