Frank Van Dornick goes 4 under in the second round to tie David Schultz at -1 overall

Schultz and Van Dornick are co-leaders for the Senior Men’s, Defoe leads the Super Seniors.

Stony Plain, Alta. (Alberta Golf) – For the second day in a row, David Schultz shot low enough to stay on top. However, he is not alone heading into the final round. Frank Van Dornick carded a -4, 68, to tie Schultz at the top of the leaderboard. Alan Defoe shot a +2, 74, in round two, bringing him to 3 over for the tournament, and giving him sole possession of first in the Super Senior Championship.

A strong start was once again the key to Schultz’s success. A bogey free front 9 with two birdies kickstarted his second round. When asked to comment on another great game, Schultz replied, “I hit the ball pretty well, on the front 9 I think I hit every green.”

For Van Dornick, round two was an entirely different story. A steady, bogey free front 9 was followed by three straight birdies on holes 12, 13, and 14, and another on the final hole. “There was nothing going on on the front 9 for me,” Van Dornick explained. “When they started falling on the back, it definitely perked me up a little bit, then I stayed focused as well as I could to bring it in.” 

The final round begins Thursday, July 28 at Stony Plain Golf Course.
