Paul Simson of Raleigh is three victories shy of tying the Carolinas
Golf Association's all-time title-holder, Dale Morey, after winning his
21st Carolinas Golf Association major championship in dramatic fashion.

The veteran golfer sank a birdie on the first playoff hole to win his
second Carolinas Senior Four-Ball Championship title in three years
this past Thursday at Porters Neck Country Club in Wilmington.

Simpson and playing partner Don Detweiler of Raleigh defeated 36-hole
leaders David Millis and Kim Mansfield of High Point in the playoff.

Senior golfers in the Triangle have several choices for tournament competition.

Among the options is the Down East Senior Amateur Tour, which finally
had some good weather Monday to get its season going with a tournament
at Southern Wayne Country Club in Goldsboro, tour organizer Bill Stone
reported. (Top finishers are below.)
