In the South, Michael Sullivan, of Fort Lauderdale and Dwight Rogers, of Fort Lauderdale, opened with 63 (-9), to jump out to a two stroke lead over a cast of teams. Sunday morning came, and the team of Jimmy Jones, Sr, of Tampa, and Gordon Marshall, of Sarasota, were one of those teams sitting there just two back. The duo would birdie their last three holes en route to a final round 67. Behind them, Sullivan and Rogers would fire a steady 69, not enough to hold the lead. With both teams posting 132 (-12) totals, they four would head to a playoff.
