The 2023 Upstate Amateur Championship at Carolina Country Club saw the best overall field of golfers in the tournament history. Patrick Stephenson was 2 strokes behind first round leader Nick Mayfield heading into the final round. He caught fire immediately going 5-under through his first four holes on Sunday. He held the lead but JD Lehman right with him early own and actually tied him for the lead on the back nine. With both golfers tied at the end of 36 holes, they went to a playoff on #1. Each golfer pared the hole and moved to the second playoff hole #9. Both were in the fairway but Lehman tugged his second shot a little left and into the water. Stephenson took advantage to par the hole and capture the tournament. Thanks to all of the golfers that endured the scorching heat!
