  • Amateur Championship Title by One at Marsh Landing
    FOR RELEASE: Sunday, July 25, 2021 MIKE SMITH CAPTURES ELUSIVE JACKSONVILLE AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE BY ONE AT MARSH LANDING -Ponte Vedra Beach resident birdies 15 and 16 to beat Japan’s Kotaro Murata- JACKSONVILLE, FL – After several near misses in the past, Mike Smith of Ponte Vedra Beach got the monkey off his back and won his first Jacksonville Amateur Championship in his 11th try on Saturday at Marsh Landing Country Club in Ponte Vedra Beach. Smith’s 209 total (68-69-72) was 7-under par for the three trips around the 6,800-yard Marsh Landing layout. Coming up one stroke shy at 210 was Japan’s Kotaro Murata, whose second- and third-round scores of 68-67 were five better than anyone else in the field. He opened with a 75. Murata, who resides in Howey-in-the-Hills, Fla. and is transferring from the University of Hawaii to San Jose State next month, had a 25-foot eagle putt from just off the green on the final hole that came up two feet short. Four players tied for third with a score of 212 (-4) – Michael Bradham, Charles Collings and first-round leader Osborn Theam, all of Jacksonville, and teenager Aaron Jarvis of Champions Gate, Fla. Another shot back at 213 was the reigning JAGA Match Play champion Mark Spencer, who was one shot off the lead starting the final round. The Amateur is conducted by the Jacksonville Area Golf Association (JAGA). This was the 60th edition of JAGA’s showcase event. Smith became only the third player in JAGA history to record wins in both the Jacksonville Amateur and Match Play championships, joining Travis Trace and Jordan Batchelor.
