McGee Wins City Golf Title Despite Final Round Slump
Mike McGee overcame a late surge by Craig Scheibert to win the Men's City Golf Tournament by one stroke with a four day total of 2 over par. Scheibert’s final round 81 sealed McGee’s back-to-back title, the first to do so since 1962–63. Weather disrupted play, but McGee nailed a 35-foot birdie on 16 and held on as Scheibert missed a final putt on 18 to force a playoff.
