RIVERSIDE, Iowa –<\/strong> The Iowa PGA Professional Championship presented by Cadillac, Club Car, and Omega finished 36 holes of the 54 holes Monday afternoon at Amana Colonies Club. This tournament offers a handful of exemptions into PGA Tour qualifier events, PGA Tour events and PGA of America events. <\/p>\n

In the Open Division, Brown Deer’s Sean McCarty holds a one-stroke lead over Dustin Toner from Servicelink. McCarty carded a 2-under-par 142 after two rounds. McCarty made the most of the second round by making a push for the top spot on the leaderboard. Toner shot 1-over par 73 to stay in contention. Chad Proehl and Jeff Schmid finished tied for third despite Proehl leading the field after the first round.<\/p>\n

In the Senior Division, Proehl (+1), Schmid (+1) and Curt Schnell are tied for first.  Schnell sits at 1-over par for the Open Division as well. Schnell put on an impressive display in his second round of action firing a 2-under-par 70 following his three-over-par 75 earlier this morning. They all lead the rest of the pack by two strokes with Judd Gibb (+3) right behind them.<\/p>\n

In the Super Senior Division, Schnell (+1) holds the lead by 12 strokes with Harvest Point’s Jeff Smith in second. Smith is 12-over-par heading into the second day of action. EK Golf’s Jim Henry improved during his second round to claim third carding a 6-over-par 78 to finish the day.<\/p>\n

The Iowa PGA also crowned its Inaugural Women’s Professional Champion. Sarah Bidney from the Wakonda Club in Des Moines carded a 7-over-par round to claim the title. Sarah defeated Sherry Newsome of Indian Creek Country Club by 1-stroke.  Congratulations Sarah!<\/p>\n

“We are honored to host the Iowa PGA Professional Championship”, Amana Colonies Golf Club PGA Professional, Stephen Kahler said. “We’ve done a lot of work to the facility over the past three years. We are really excited to showcase the changes we’ve made in such a prestigious event.”<\/p>\n

The Iowa PGA would like to thank Kahler and his staff at Amana Colonies Golf Club for their wonderful hospitality and support in hosting this event.<\/p>\n

What’s On The Line Tomorrow:<\/strong><\/u>
\nThe top-5 finishers at this tournament will earn exemption into the 53rd PGA Professional National Championship at Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa in Austin, Texas, April 26-29, 2020.
