Farren leads a pack at Met PGA

September

Nobody at the nearby scorer’s table heard a fuss, so it was a surprise when Sean Farren came over from the ninth green and calmly announced that he just had a hole-in-one.

The ace vaulted him into the lead at the Lincoln Met PGA at Quaker Ridge with a 4-under 66.

Mike Meehan is a shot back, and there are several players from the local scene within range. Frank Bensel of Century shot a 68. Rob Labritz of GlenArbor and Carl Alexander of Purchase each carded a 69.

Check the leaderboard.

Keep an eye on Phil Cardwell, who is even par. He is a Quaker Ridge assistant. Rick Vershure, the head pro at the host club, had to withdraw this morning because of an injury.
