TWIN FALLS, MN (October 2, 2016) -- The 2016 Idaho Tournament of Champions was conducted at Blue Lakes Country Club October 1-2 in Twin Falls. After the first round of the championship, Mike Rawls was leading the Senior Division with an even-par 72 while Steven Pleas and Tony Wilson trailed behind at 1-over-par. Tony Mullet shot a first round total of 5-under-par 67 and had a five-stroke lead over Arthur Lynch and Carson Barry in the Men’s Division.

Kareen Markle led the Women Division with a 3-over-par 76, and had a three-stroke lead going into the final round. Brittanie Toone who won the championship in 2015 finished at 6-over-par 79 as well as Katie Neely. In the Senior Women’s Division, there was a three way tie amongst Kristin Fenwick, Shawna Ianson and Linda Estes at 6-over-par. Ianson won the 2016 Idaho Senior State Championship and was looking for a second win of the season.

On day two, Mike Rawls held the lead the whole way and completed play with a 5-under-par 67 and a two day total of 5-under-par to win by ten-strokes over Tony Wilson in the Senior Men’s Division. Rawls won the 2016 Super Senior Classic at Jug Mountain Ranch just a few weeks before.

In the Senior Women’s Division, Shawna Ianson won by four-strokes fresh off her her senior championship win.
