Meanwhile, Joe Haavisto was took a comfortable
win to finish in first overall in the Open Pro-am
class. “I’m really happy with how
things went today. I still have the points lead
in both lasses and that’s what matters
in the long run,” said Haavisto.
Michael Pilotte’s consistent 3-3 put
him in the number two spot, which was something
that looked out of reach for him for a while.
“I had some issues early in the day so
I thought I might have to sit it out for the
rest of the day, but everything ended up working
out,” said a relieved Pilotte.
