Golding and Walden win Senior Division

Shreveport, Louisiana (March 31) – Gabe Reynolds, PGA director of instruction at Topgolf - Dallas, and Corey Roberson, PGA director of golf at Lakewood Country Club, claimed the GT Golf Supply Pro-Pro Championship title after firing a final round 64. The 36-hole Four-Ball Stroke Play Championship was conducted at Southern Trace Country Club.


The team carded rounds of 65-64–129, to finish at 15-under-par, overcoming a four-shot deficit from round one. Two bogey-free rounds kept the duo steady, while making birdies when they presented themselves. 


“Our goal was to get off to a good start and get settled into the round, and about halfway through the round, I looked at the leaderboard and realized we were gaining some traction,” said Roberson. Their plan worked to perfection as they birdied five of seven holes starting on hole number eight. 


Both Reynolds and Roberson acknowledged that their ability to stay loose and poke fun at each other helps keep them consistent. “There was probably more trash-talking against each other in our own cart than in most of the field. Having our own little schtick helps both of us stay calm and have fun,” said Roberson. Reynolds added, “There’s a lot of love in that golf cart, so that makes this really fun.”


Roberson concluded with how special it is to come back and win with his friend after a few years away from the Section.


For their Open Division victory, they earned a team total of $3,600 of the $34,500 Championship purse.

In the Senior Division, Dan Walden, PGA head professional at Texas Star Golf Course, and Kevin Golding, PGA director of golf at The Lakes at Castle Hills, led from start to finish to claim the victory. They carded rounds of 64-65–129, 15-under-par, to win by one.


The pair made birdie on the first two holes of the tournament and never looked back. They finished the first round with a two-stroke lead and did not give it up. 


“We were lucky not to have to watch the leaderboard. We were in a group with the guys that could beat us, and it sort of became match play after that,” stated Golding. A late pair of birdies from the team of Britt Patton and Mark Walker kept them on their toes, but they ultimately held them off.


Walden now has a win in both the Open and Senior Divisions of this Championship. “Dan and I have known each other for 20 plus years, so it was super cool to win one together,” said Golding.


The team takes $1,700 back to DFW.


The GT Golf Supply Pro-Pro Championship is presented by Adventures In Golf, CMC Design, Columbia Golf, E-Z-GO, Golf ScoreCards Inc., Live! Casino & Hotel, Oakley, Signs By The Sea, THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson and Turtlebox Audio.

Irving, Texas (August 25) – The Nelson Golf and Sports Club hosted two Northern Texas PGA Major Championships this week, the Club Car | XXIO Northern Texas Senior PGA Professional Championship and the Lajitas Golf Resort Women’s Section Championship. Clayton Friend claimed the Senior title, and Kim Paez claimed the Women’s title. Kim Paez, PGA Member at Ping Inc., claimed the Lajitas Golf Resort Women’s Section Championship title, carding rounds of 70-72–142. Paez finished the Championship at 2-over-par, winning by four strokes. She began the final round one stroke back of Katie Flinn, director of instruction at Topgolf - Fort Worth, and her 2-over-par final round was enough to come from behind and secure the win. This is Paez’s first victory with the Northern Texas PGA since joining the section in 2025. “I stuck to my game plan this week, which was fairways and greens,” Paez said. “I think I missed only one or two fairways yesterday. I played pretty conservatively, but it paid off in the end.” Reflecting on her final round performance, Paez said, "It was a little bit windier today. It made me calculate a lot more on the tee shots.” It was an up-and-down round for Paez, but she hit her approach on hole 18 to two feet and tapped in for birdie. “The last three holes are pretty gettable, so I just had to remind myself that no matter how the round was going, I was going to have opportunities to close it out at the end.” Next week, September 3-5, Paez joins four other PGA female PGA Teaching, Coaching and Club Professionals from across the country to represent the United States in the fourth Women’s PGA Cup. They will take on Australia, Canada, Great Britain & Ireland, South Africa and Sweden in a 54-hole stroke play format at Carden Park Golf Resort in Chester, Cheshire, United Kingdom. “It is the biggest honor. When I first got my PGA Membership, and I found out about the PGA Cup, it became one of my biggest goals,” said Paez about making the team. “I was constantly checking the rankings, and coming into the KPMG [Women’s PGA Championship] and the LPGA Professionals Championship, I knew I had to lock in and give myself the best chance.” “I am so excited and so proud to represent the Northern Texas PGA as well, so hopefully I make everyone proud,” added Paez. This 36-hole Northern Texas PGA major championship is the fourth of five individual stroke play events that comprise the Woman Player of the Year points standings. The 22-player field competed for a purse of $7,500, and Kim Paez took home $1,050. The Lajitas Golf Resort Women’s Section Championship was presented by A.PUTNAM and XXIO. The Nelson Golf and Sports Club Par: 35-35–70 Women’s Championship Yardage: 5,878 yards
