Jake Peacock Wins 103rd Georgia Amateur Championship
Augusta, Ga. – Jake Peacock of Milton goes back-to-back, winning the Georgia Amateur Championship at 13-under-par 275 (68-70-67-70), for his second title in as many years. Peacock drained a 30-foot putt on the 72nd hole to secure the Robert H. Martin Trophy. The 103rd edition of the Georgia Amateur Championship took place at Augusta Country Club, July 11-14.
Peacock retained his title this year after a storybook finish. He shot a 2-under-par 70 to stay atop the leaderboard and be crowned champion. His round consisted of six birdies, three on the front (second, third, fifth) and three on the back (11th, 16th, 18th). However, not everything came easy on Sunday as he posted four bogeys (first, sixth, 12th, 13th) in a tough battle with runner-up Brycen Jones of Thomasville. Jones would go on to finish solo second at 12-under-par 276 (73-68-67-68).
Entering hole 18, Peacock and Jones were tied at 12-under-par for the championship. Both players hit close to each other; Peacock with the tougher lie touching the rough. Both players hit the green from around 150 yards out. Peacock lands his shot 30 feet from the hole while Jones planted one within 10 feet. Peacock would hit the 30-foot putt and send the crowd into hysterics. Jones would miss his putt high of the hole, and Peacock would go on to win his second-consecutive Georgia Amateur Championship.
Peacock's victory is the first time a back-to-back winner hoisted the trophy since Russell Henley did it in 2008-09.
Two players tied with a score of 8-under-par 280, R.B. Clyburn of Cartersville (69-68-75-68) and Hayes Brown of Atlanta (69-70-71-70). Two players would also tie for fifth place, including 2022 Georgia Amateur champion William Love of Atlanta (69-72-70-70) and Cooper Tendick of Kennesaw (71-67-70-73), both posting a 7-under-par 281.
The 104th edition of the Georgia Amateur Championship will be hosted by Atlanta Country Club in Marietta.
