2013 TRANS Amateur Champion U Cal, Berkeley's HANNAH SUH

   Hannah Suh of San Jose, CA, and Ashlan Ramsey, Milledgeville, GA, were tied at 2 under par 214 going into the final round of the 72-hole Trans inaugural stroke play championship. Ramsey was 5-down after nine holes. With an exchange of birdies in the back nine, Ramsey pulled to within one stroke going into the 72nd hole. She watched with heartache as her birdie putt barely slid past the hole. Suh sank a perfectly struck eight foot par putt to claim the title.
   The day began with Hannah making birdie on #1 and Ashlan scoring a bogey - a huge two shot swing. Ashlan countered with back to back birdies while Hannah parred then struggled to a bogey. The ball was in Ashlan's court - until the next hole. Ashlan again bogeyed to Hannah's birdie while two holes later Ashlan's second shot found the water leading to a difficult double bogey - to another Hannah birdie.
   At the end of the front nine, Hannah was leading by four shots. Ashlan mounted a valiant comeback on the back nine with eight pars and a single bogey while Hannah struggled with four bogeys.
   On the final hole Ashlan faced a slippery downhill breaking birdie putt that just slid by the hole. Hannah stepped up to an eight foot uphill putt that found the center of the cup for the one stroke win.

CHAMPIONS and MEDALISTS
Andrea Kraus, Baltimore, Maryland
Corey Weworski, Carlsbad, California

     Andrea Kraus and Corey Weworski sailed through Whirlwind ~ Devil's Claw ~ Golf Course, without a look back...the desert course proved to be a perfect venue for their game. Their first round 66 was bettered by a second round 62, cementing them as the 2013 Trans Senior Four-Ball Championship Medalists.
     If the course was to their liking, the weather was even better. Temperatures were pleasant and very welcome to many contestants who were checking their home temperatures...and delighted to be in Arizona. Then came the haboob, according to Trans Associate Director Barb Byrnes (who was also a contestant)) which sent us to the dictionary only to find that a haboob is a wind blowing desert storm and that it was on day three as we rolled into the second hour on the course. The winds did come and the sands accompanied them. The challenge was on!
     Kraus and Weworski survived the winds and recorded another sub par round of 68; when combined with their first two rounds totalled 196...our 2013 Trans Four-Ball Champions were in place.
