Meadia’s Duncan, Concord’s Von Borsig share medallists honors

 MALVERN, Pa.–Conrad Von Borsig of Concord CC joined Chase Duncan of Meadia Heights GC as medallists at the 107th Amateur Championship on Tuesday (the Amateur qualifying consists of 36 holes, 18 at each course). Both players finished at 2-under-par 140.

  Yesterday, the field at Applebrook GC (par 71, 6,701 yards) completed its qualifying, however, Von Borsig and about half of the White Manor CC (par 71, 6,963 yards) field had to return to the course at 8:30 a.m. to complete their second and final round.

  Von Borsig posted an even-par total over his remaining seven holes, finishing at 2-over-par 73. At Applebrook GC he posted a 4-under-par 67. 

  “My goal for the summer is to win every tournament,” said Von Borsig, 20, of Swarthmore, Pa. “I’m excited to be playing tournament golf again, I haven’t played in one in awhile, and it was nice to shoot in the 60s yesterday. I haven’t done that in a tournament in awhile either.”

  Von Borsig used a four-hole stretch at Applebrook GC yesterday morning to propel himself up the leaderboard. The University of Virginia junior birdied holes 3-6. He made a fantastic up-and-down from the front bunker on No. 3 (par 4, 310 yards); drained an uphill eight-foot birdie on No. 4 (par 4. 412 yards); rattled in a 35 footer on the par 3, 5th (200 yards) and hit a perfect 9-iron from 148 yards “uphill and downwind” to three feet on No. 6 (par 4, 390 yards).

  He carded a front nine 5-under-par 31.

  Duncan, by virtue of his tee time, was seeded No. 2. Von Borsig was the three seed.

  Duncan, a redshirt junior at North Carolina State University, was all-around solid on Monday.

  He hit 16 greens at White Manor CC and 17 greens at Applebrook GC. 

  “From tee to green I played well all day,” said Duncan, 22, of Lancaster, Pa. “I putted poorly [in the] morning. This afternoon I was able to take advantage of the par 5s.” 

  Duncan birdied three of the four par 5s at Applebrook GC. He hit No. 1 (par 5, 521 yards) and No. 10 (par 5, 573 yards) in two shots and then hit it within 10 feet on No. 16 (par 5, 571 yards). 

  After opening with a birdie, he made a 14-footer on No. 4 (par 4, 412 yards) after knocking a sand wedge on from 111 yards. Duncan dropped a shot with a three putt on No. 7 (par 4, 460 yards), but rebounded by knocking a 9-iron to two feet on the intimidating ninth (par 3, 149 yards). 

  He followed a birdie on No. 10 with another on No. 11 (par 3, 119 yards) from 30 feet short of the green. An errant drive on No. 15 (par 3, 214 yards) cost Duncan a shot on the long par 3 but the nice birdie on No. 16 and two ensuing pars netted a 67.

  A six player for two qualifying positions followed at Applebrook on Tuesday.

  Chip Lutz of LedgeRock GC made an ace on the par 3 11th (119 yards) with a pitching wedge and Mike Moffat of Commonwealth National GC outlasted his fellow competitors in six holes to advance.

  Match play began at Applebrook at 12 p.m.
