St. Joseph native wins 36th Senior Amateur Championship
BOLIVAR, Mo. (News-Press NOW) -- St. Joseph native Brian Haskell took the first-round lead this week at the Missouri Golf Association's 36th Senior Amateur Championship at Silo Ridge Golf and Country Club in Southwest Missouri.
Haskell made five birdies and two bogeys, and closed out his last six holes with six pars to stay at a gross total of 69 or three-under-par on the round on Monday, Sept. 22.
After thunderstorms delayed the shotgun start Tuesday, Sept. 23, to 12:15 p.m., lingering lightning in the area ultimately cancelled round two of play. This means the scores from Monday's round would stand as final, giving Brian Haskell the win.
Haskell, who was also the 2025 Senior Match Play winner, brings the trophy back to St. Joseph and was crowned the 2025 Senior Amateur champion with a score of three-under par (69 gross).
