Randy Haag
There is not much
Randy Haag of Orinda, Calif., hasn't accomplished on the Senior amateur golf circuit.
After winning the Society of Senior Masters earlier this year, Haag finishes on top of the leaderboard at the National Senior Hall of Fame at Willow Creek Course at High Point Country Club in High Point, N.C.

Robert Sheats of Atlanta, Ga., finished in solo third place at 2-over, Daniel Neveu of Pinehurst, N.C., finished in solo fourth place at 4-over, and Michael Arasin of Auburn, Ala., finished in solo fifth place at 5-over.

In the Super Senior Division, Gary Robinson of Fayetteville, N.C., finished 2-over and won by five shots over Todd Brown of Winston Salem, N.C., who finished in solo second place at 7-over.
Brown shot rounds of 67-74-77 to secure the wire-to-wire win with the impressive 5-under 67 first-round.

The 54-hole invitational, started in honor of Dale Morey (a member at Willow Creek), typically draws one of the strongest fields of the year. The tournament organizers desire to create and maintain a true and meaningful Hall of Fame that recognizes the best in amateur golf of national and international acclaim.
Their list of previous inductees and champions attests to our success in these efforts. Most have won either the U.S. or the British Senior Amateur Championship or innumerable other prestigious championships such as the U.S. Amateur.
