 Levin Captures First Victory on Canadian Tour Press Release
MacGregor Golf tour professional Spencer Levin of Elk Grove, CA continues his streak of top five finishes on the Canadian Tour as he delivered a much anticipated victory this past weekend at the Iberostar Riviera Maya Open in Riviera Maya, Mexico.
Levin began the day 1 stroke behind two time Canadian Tour Champion Derek Gillespie , but closed with a 7 under par 65, including a back nine 30, to win by one, with a total score of -21, 267 (67-66-69-65). Using MacGregor's MACTEC M685 Forged Cavity Back irons, Levin played a tremendous fourth round, posting five birdies and an eagle. His final birdie was a pressure packed 20-footer on the final hole to assure the one-shot victory. Spencer has placed in the top four in all four events that he's played on the Canadian Tour, opening his season with a playoff at the San Jose International Open, then finishing 3rd and 4th in the next two tournaments.
"This concludes an impressive few weeks for Spencer", said Barry Schneider, Owner and CEO of MacGregor Golf. "His win today and his four consecutive finishes on the Canadian Tour of no worse than 4th place, indicate a very special talent. We are so proud of Spencer.
And we are excited that MacGregor's dedication to creating equipment with the most advanced technologies has contributed to Spencer's
consistently great ball-striking."
"This feels just great," Levin said. "I've been playing very well and to finally seal the deal is a wonderful feeling. It sure felt good to make that final putt."
Ranked as the number 2 amateur in the world during his college career at the University of New Mexico, 22-year old Levin has continued to meet the high expectations placed upon him since the 2004 US Open when he finished T13th, the lowest finish by an amateur in 34 years.
