Old Corkscrew Golf Club‘s assistant golf professional, Domenico Geminiani, won the PGA Assistants Championship, a National event featuring many of the best club professionals in the country!
Geminiani made four consecutive bogeys to lose a five-shot lead but responded with a pair of birdies for a three-shot victory in the National Car Rental Assistant PGA Professional Championship supported by Srixon/Cleveland Golf/XXIO/Asics.
“I was hitting it really well but there’s going to be times on this course, especially in these conditions, where it’s going to be tough,” said Geminiani, who works at Old Corkscrew Golf Club in the South Florida PGA. “It’s never easy to win a four-day tournament.”
PGA Tour Champions, Loren Roberts and Fred Funk are former winners of this prestigious tournament.
Geminiani held the overnight lead in the four-round championship and went on to win by three shots with a total of six under par 282.
Geminiani turned pro a decade ago when he was 16. He was born in St. Martinique, lived with his mom in Saint Lucia and his father in Bradenton. He started working at Old Corkscrew earlier this year.
