Tim Hogarth of Northridge shot an even-par 144 to share medalist honors at the U.S.
Mid-Amateur Championship with defending champion Nathan Smith of Pittsburgh and Scott
Harvey of Greensboro, N.C.
Hogarth, 44, who won the 1996 U.S. Amateur Public Links, shot a 1-under 71 at
Atlantic Golf Club in Bridgehampton, N.Y. Hogarth’s round was the best among the
players who went out Sunday morning on a windswept course.
“I was co-medalist in 2007 at Bandon Dunes and it is always special,”
Hogarth said. “I honestly was looking to get into match play and give myself a
chance.”
The match-play portion of the tournament begins today, with the 36-hole championship
scheduled for Thursday.
