Golf in the Lower Hudson Valley, from high schools to the pros

Bisconti still going strong

September
16

Greg Bisconti is be lurking again.

The assistant pro at St. Andrew’s is fired a 4-under 66 today and is one stroke off Sean Farren’s lead heading into the final round of the Lincoln Met PGA Championship. He will be in the final group today at Quaker Ridge.

Here’s the scoreboard.

Bisconti finished second at the Met PGA Assistant Championship last week and has been spending a lot of time near the top lately.

“I just have a little more confidence,” he said of the recent consistency. “I feel like I belong with the best players in the section. I feel like I’m one of the guys that should be winning these tournaments.”

That’s a sentiment shared by Frank Bensel (Century) and Rob Labritz (GlenArbor), who are sitting at 137 and 138, two and three strokes removed from the lead, respectively.

“I think there is another 65 or 66 out there,” Bisconti said of the course. “It just depends on what the leaders do. If we keep it under par, it’s going to be difficult to catch us, but this is a hard golf course and it’s easy to shoot over par, too.”
