East Florida golf team sophomore Masen McKain shot a final-round 2-over-par 73 to win the 2024 Platinum Coast Invitational at Rockledge Country Club in a three-way playoff sudden death holes against finalist Mike Chouinard.
Chouinard won the low round of the event with a final round of 69 to tie McKain and extend to extra holes. This is the second year in a row that the event has ended in a playoff, and Mason becomes the second consecutive EFSC player to win the title.
“Masen played very consistently today. It was another tough day with the wind picking up and the greens firming up,” said Rockledge PGA Professional Matt Morrison. “We are very proud to have Mason as our 2024 Platinum Coast Champion.”
The top five in the Championship division was completed by Zack McGoffin in third, Daniel Adams in fourth and Gray Cooke in fifth.
Other flight winners included Alan Specht, Andy Purcell, Dean Wylie, Paul Bentley, Kirk Svartstrom, Tracy Frey, Ben Jordan and Tommy Martin.
The Platinum Coast Invitational was the final event of the East Coast Amateur Series and the top players from each flight will be invited to the championship next month at Sandridge in Vero Beach.
