On Top at Wellshire

Jeff Chapman of Inverness Golf Club, a veteran of a handful of USGA national championships, won the Denver City Amateur on Sunday at Wellshire Golf Course.

Chapman, who placed 23rd in the event last year, shot rounds of 64-72 over the weekend to post a 6-under-par 136 total, good for a one-stroke victory. Over the two days, he carded a dozen birdies and six bogeys. A birdie on the par-4 16th hole on Sunday gave him his final one-stroke advantage.

Trevor Glen of Thornton, a graduate of Legacy High School and now a West Texas A&M golfer, parred his final 11 holes on Sunday to finish second at 137. He recorded a 70 in the final round after a three-birdie, two-bogey day.

The only other player to finish under 140 was Ethan Fine, who took third place at 139 after closing with a 69.
