Jul. 22—STILLWATER, Minn. — Isaac Ahn steadily got better as the 123rd Minnesota Golf ****** ociation State Amateur Championship went along this week at StoneBridge Golf Club.
And Ahn's improvements were nearly enough to land him the top spot.
After opening the tournament with an even-par 72 on Monday, the former Rochester Mayo star shot a 1-under 71 on Tuesday to jump from 15th place to fifth.
That's where Ahn finished the championship, after shooting a 2-under-par 70 in Wednesday's final round, good for a 54-hole total of 3-under-par 213 and a tie for fifth place with second-round leader and former Cretin-Derham Hall star Sam Udovich.
Udovich, who'll be a sophomore at Texas Christian University in the fall, opened the tournament with back-to-back rounds of 69 to sit at 6-under through 36 holes. He shot 3-over on the front on Wednesday and couldn't find the birdies he needed down the stretch to climb back into ****** le contention.
