Myrick wins 70th Annual
Greenwood Invitational
A new champion was crowned this evening at the 70th playing of the Greenwood Invitational. Joel Myrick,
of Hattiesburg, took a strong lead over the field this year. Myrick’s first round of 66 and second of 69 put him
at the top of the leaderboard to begin the final round. Myrick had a one stroke lead over Ben Snow. With a
strong showing in the first nine holes where he made five birdies, Myrick only had to coast around the second
nine shooting a 36 to take home the hardware. Past Champion and Greenwood native, Alan Ellis made a
strong run in the final round where he started four strokes back. Ellis finished runner-up to Myrick.
A great field of 162 of Mississippi and the surrounding state’s best amateurs appeared to enjoy another
historic year in Greenwood. We look forward to seeing everyone in 2018.
Many thanks to the staff and volunteers at Greenwood Country Club for their continued support of
the Invitational to make it another successful year. Many thanks also to new head gold professional at the
Greenwood Country Club, John Pielemeier, for his dedication to making the inviatational a success and grand
experience for all players. We look forward to returning to Greenwood in the future.
