When the Association assembled its team for the annual
Palmer Cup Match with the Tri-State PGA Section, five of its
top seven Honor Roll players accepted. All of them, Sean
Knapp, David Brown, Nathan Sutherland, Nathan Smith, and
C.G. Mercatoris, IV, recorded 2-0 tallies with victories in
both Singles and Four-Ball matches. This performance led the
WPGA to a 10-7 victory at Latrobe CC on September 30. Others
scoring points were Ron DeNunzio in singles, Perry Graciano
partnered with Brown in the age 50-54 Four-Ball match, and
the senior team of John Rodney & Gary VanSickle in
Four-Ball. Singles wins were particularly impressive as the
five beat the likes of John Aber, Rob McClellan, Kevin
Shields, Ryan Sikora, and Gordon Vietmeier.
After losing to the Section for two decades, the last five
years have been competitive with each team winning two
matches plus a tie.
The event is enhanced by the continued support and presence
of Arnold Palmer.
