Bruce Bourdon Wins
2024 Matchplay Championship



Bruce Bourdon and Jack Banda took their match to the 19th hole at Willow Creek Golf Course to determine the outcome of the 2024 Matchplay Championship! Bruce won the match 1-up on the first extra hole to capture the 2024 Matchplay title!

This was a tight match, with the competitors never gaining more than a two hole advantage. Jack was 2 up through 9 holes, but Bruce battled back to take a one up lead on 15, then hung on for the victory in "overtime.".

The back nine was a battle with Bruce pulling even on 11. The competitors matched scores through 14, then Bruce won 15 (a shot hole) to gain the advantage. Jack then won 17 to pull even, and they both scored par on 18 to finish the regulation match "all square." Bruce had the advantage with the first extra hole being a "stroke hole," and he made it count by matching Jack's par on #1 to capture the title. Both players had 12-14 foot pressure-packed putts for par on the extra hole... and both made their putts! Jack first, then Bruce. It was a fitting end to a well fought match.

Congratulations to Bruce and Jack for making it to the finals... and for their spirited championship match!
