ELKMONT GOLFER SMILING

When Lee Hodges walked off the No. 9 green at Burningtree Country Club late Monday afternoon after finishing 36 holes, he looked like he could play another 18. The Elkmont native looked relaxed and was wearing a big smile. It’s amazing what a 134 score in the U.S. Amateur Sectional Qualifying event can do for a person.

“I played so good today. I didn’t struggle at all,” said Hodges, who plays at UAB. “Everything went well. I don’t think I could have played any better.”

The golfers with the top three scores advanced to next month’s U.S. Amateur Championship in Michigan. Burningtree was one of 51 sites across the country hosting U.S. Amateur Sectional Qualifying events.  Hodges was the only one out of 84 to post a first-round 67. There were six behind him at 69. Hodges finished his second round long before most of the group at 69 came in. He had to wait close to an hour to see if anyone could match or better his 134.
