Grant Sturgeon wins PGA Assistant Championship

AP, Florida :
Grant Sturgeon won the PGA Assistant Championship on Sunday, closing with a 7-under 65 – the best final round in tournament history – for a seven-stroke victory over Kenny Pigman.
Sturgeon, a PGA assistant professional at Winged Foot in Mamaroneck, New York, had a 13-under 275 total on PGA Golf Club’s Wanamaker Course.
“Today’s the best I ever played when it really mattered,” Sturgeon said. “I hit the ball really well, gave myself a ton of opportunities and made a lot of putts. It’s one of those rounds we all play and practice for, so that everything goes right as it relates to bounces, ball-striking and short game. I was fortunate that all happened at the same time.”
Sturgeon earned $9,000 and spot in the 2015 PGA Professional National Championship at Philadelphia Cricket Club.
