Lindeblad Bests Rohde In Pro-Am

Tue., Aug. 26, 1997

Gary Lindeblad took advantage of Mark Rohde’s stumble on the back side to win the Athletic Round Table Pro-Am series stop at Avondale Golf Course on Monday.

Rohde, playing out of Liberty Lake, fashioned a 33 on the front side for a two-stroke advantage over Lindeblad and a couple of others at the turn.

But on the back side, Rohde needed 37 shots while Lindeblad, the Indian Canyon pro, came in with a 34 for a 3-under-par 69 and one-shot margin over Rohde.

Four others were at 1-under 71 - Dave Christenson, Indian Canyon; Craig Schuh, Deer Park; Jerry Zink, The Fairways; and Tim Morton, Avondale.

Pro Dan Schmarr of Liberty Lake scored a hole-in-one on the 104-yard fifth hole using a 52-degree wedge.

Pete Caruso of Indian Canyon and Dick Bingham of Spokane Country Club led the amateur brigade with even-par 72s.

Amateur net leaders by handicap division: 0-8-Jim Johnson, Lewiston, 69. 9-13-Jim Dobbins, The Fairways and John Distefano, Stoneridge, 66s. 14-30-Leon Blood, Lewiston and Bud Roffler, Hayden Lake/ART, 70s.
