Ocala Pro wins the 2018 US Professional Hickory Golf Championship Sponsored by United States Golf Teachers Federation

February 26, 2018: The Temple Terrace Golf & Country Club opened in 1922 and laid out by noted architect Tom Bendelow, was described by the Tampa Tribune as a brute of a course stretching out over 6,400 yards. Probably not worthy by today’s standard but a stout test for the century old clubs used back then. The links held up well against some excellent modern-day hickory golfers with Ocala’s Dylan Malafronte carding an even par 72 to grab the John Shippen Cup a margin of 2 strokes clear of Mark Harman from Ridgeland, South Carolina. This year’s Ladies Championship goes to Jennifer Cully of Apollo Beach Golf Club with an excellent round of 86.
​
The USPHGC is sponsored by the United States Golf Teachers Federation and open to all golf professionals, male and female. Players compete for the same $5,000 prize fund associated with the original Florida Open won by Leo Diegel. The golf course is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and one of only three in the state.
