2017 Father & Son Invitational Champions Joe & Brendan Monahan
The playoff to determine the winner of this year's Father & Son Invitational was well worth the wait. Joe & Brendan Monahan (Winchester CC), Eddie & Ollie Cordeiro (Belmont CC), David & Ryan Friel (Vesper CC) and Tom & Jeff Monahan (Vesper CC) all shot even-par rounds of 71 during the tournament proper in July and reconvened during the early morning hours of August 27th to decide our champions. Joe & Brendan Monahan jumped out to the early lead by draining a 35-foot putt for birdie on the 1st hole. They would stumble a bit on the next few holes and post a 37 on the front nine as they shared the lead with Tom & Jeff Monahan. The solid play of Tom & Jeff resulted in a one-shot lead after the 12th hole, but Joe & Brendan would come storming back with birdies on the 13th, 14th and 15 holes to post a score of 74. Needing a birdie on the 18th hole to force extra holes, Tom Monahan made a valiant effort on his 40-foot birdie putt, but it just slid past the hole.
This year's victory was Joe & Brendan Monahan's record 10th Father & Son title and Joe's 17th overall combining with his three sons.
