Polan (Brno, Czech Republic) highlighted the tournament for Centenary at the Pinecrest Invitational earkier this week as he tied for the individual lead after Tuesday's final round and then lost to Houston-Victoria's Max Schliesing in a five-hole playoff for the individual title.
Both players parred the first hole (#1 – par 3/190 yards) and both bogeyed hole number 10 (par 4/410 yards) to remain tied after the first two playoff holes. After Polan and Schliesing matched each other with a birdie and a par on No. 11 and No. 1 respectively, Schliesing made par on No. 10 while Polan bogeyed.
Polan shot 68-73-72 – 213 (even par) for the two-day event which included the new career-low round of 68 in round one on Monday. Polan and Schliesing were the only two individuals to finish below par. The Gents, playing in their second tournament and first since early February, finished at +48 (900) good for fifth place overall.
The Ladies and Gents will next be in action as they host the annual Hal Sutton Invitational March 21-23 at the Golf Club at Stonebridge in Bossier City.
