St. Louisan, Jim Holtgrieve shot a disappointing 77 - 74 (151 total) at the US Senior Open this week at the Broadmoor Golf Club in Colorado Springs.  Holtgrieve qualified for the Senior Open in convincing fashion at Westwood Coutry Club on July 7th with a 2-under par 68, winning by four shots to make his 4th appearance in the championship.

Bears are making headlines at the Sr. Open as several have been spotted on the grounds and one even ran through the fairway between Dottie Pepper and Bernhard Langer.  Not something most of us see everyday on a golf course.
