Australian Duo Wins Father/Son Classic

Lee and Dylan Martin, age 17, made the most out of their first event with the Southern Nevada Golf Association. The father and son, who recently moved to Las Vegas from Sydney, Australia, when Lee was transferred by his company, won the net division of the SNGA Father and Son Classic played at Las Vegas National Golf Club. They shot 63.

Dylan, a rising senior at Faith Lutheran, recorded five birdies during the round to set the pace.

“Well, my son carried me and was the big reason we won,” Lee Martin said. “It was a wonderful event and the first time Dylan and I had played together as a team. Usually we are playing against each other. It was also our first tournament with the SNGA and we want to thank them for a wonderful day. We enjoyed it.”

The Martins moved to Las Vegas in March and Dylan is pursuing a collegiate career following his senior season at Faith Lutheran.

Second place went to Ivan and Christopher Smith while Ian and Victor Onufrieff finished third.

Tyler and Brevin Barlow, age 13, won the Callaway flight with a round of 59. Brevin played for the Bob Miller Middle School team this past season and will be playing junior golf throughout the summer. Bob Miller won the middle school championship.

“It was a great time and we really enjoyed it,” Tyler Barlow said. “It was nice to play together and we are already looking forward to next year.”

Rene and Brian Pena finished second in the Callaway flight and James and Ryno Rasmussen finished third.
