Henninger Earns Lone Spot into US Senior Open Field

Brian Henninger earned the only spot available at St. Clair Country Club on Monday into the US Senior Open Championship.  Henninger had the lead going to the 18th hole, but a bogey put him back into a tie with Jay Don Blake who had posted his 1-under 70 about 30 minutes earlier.

Henninger and Blake went to a playoff for the one spot.  After both made pars at the 1st hole, Henninger roled in a birdie putt on the 2nd playoff hole, hole 8, to punch his ticket to the US Senior Open at Scioto Country Club August 11-14 in Columbus, OH.

Blake received the 1st Alternate and local Jeff Whitfield was 2nd Alternate with an Even par 71.  For the full field results, visit the Plaza Motors Scoreboard via the link below.
