Hoch Captures Milwaukee Open

Scott Hoch rebounded from a bogey on his first hole to shoot a 6-under-par 65 and win the Greater Milwaukee Open by three strokes, his first PGA Tour victory this year.

Hoch, who took a one-stroke advantage into the final round, had a four-day total of 15-under 269 at Brown Deer Park Golf Course in Milwaukee. He had seven birdies, including one on the final hole that padded his victory.

Marco Dawson was second at 272. Jeff Sluman (66), Joe Acosta (68) and Jim Gallagher (67) took third at 274. Joey Sindelar, Steve Lowery, Lee Rinker and Duffy Waldorf were at 275.

Former British and U.S. Open champion Tony Jacklin carded a 5-under 67 to win the $600,000 Franklin Quest Championship in Park City, Utah, by one shot over six players.

Jacklin, in his second year on the Senior PGA Tour, finished the 54-hole event at 10-under 206 over the par-72, 7,026 yard Park Meadows Golf Club.

In second place were a host of big names including Tom Weiskopf who closed with a 6-under 66 as did former champion Dave Stockton, who were at 207.

Hall of Famer Betsy King and rookie Emilee Klein shot their second consecutive 5-under-par 67s to share the second-round lead in the LPGA Rail Classic in Springfield, Ill.

Beth Daniel, who won the tournament in 1989 and 1990, also shot a 67 to remain two back. She eagled No. 15. Leta Lindley was three back after a 66.

Robin Walton of Clarkston missed the cut after shooting a 70 for a two-day total of 147.
