METRO ROUNDUP: Kaperak captures 4th Hulman Links championship

Tom Reck Tribune-Star Correspondent

TERRE HAUTE — Ted Kaperak added to his golf resume on Sunday, winning for the fourth time in the Hulman Links Club Championship.

Kaperak had rounds of 68 and 69 to finish with a 7-under-par 137, finishing six shots ahead of runner-up Tom Jones, who went 74-69 for his 143 score.

The winner had six birdies in going 33-36 in the final round. He had four birdies and an eagle in Saturday’s round.

“I hit it straight and made some putts,” Kaperak said of the weekend competition.

Jones had five birdies and two bogeys for his 69, matching Kaperak’s total in the final round.

Dave Brown and Stu Johnson were the only other players to fire sub-par rounds on Sunday. Each had 71.

Brown finished third with 144 while Scott McVey and Fred Reynolds tied for fourth with 146 scores and Johnson took sixth with 147.

Mark Bird and Mark Neaderhiser each finished with 150 scores in the White Flight. Bird took flight honors by winning a playoff on the second hole.

Russ Campbell shot 143 to take Senior Flight honors for the third straight year.
