Defending Champions
Jimmy Jones Sr. & Terese Romeo fired a tournament total of 15-under par to claim the Mixed Team Championship at Black Diamond Ranch in Lecanto, on June 28-29, 2014. Jones and Romeo, both from Tampa, got off to a great start on Saturday, opening up the Championship with a round of seven-under par 65 on the Ranch Course. The duo would take only a one stroke lead into the final round which would be held on the famed Quarry Course. Jones and Romeo would pick up where they left off firing an impressive round of eight-under par 64, to secure the title by four shots. For a look at the 2014 Championship Results click here.
