WALLINGFORD, Pa.–Thomas Bartolacci, Jr., of Saucon Valley CC survived a frenetic final stretch on Wednesday to take the 38th Senior Amateur Championship at The Springhaven Club (par 70, 6,507 yards). Bartolacci’s three-foot par save on the final hole helped the 57 year old emerge from an amazingly crowded and fluid leaderboard in which six players, competing in the last four groups, all had an opportunity to claim victory on the final hole.
