Head Golf Professional of Blue Hills Country Club and part-time Account Executive for Ad Trends Advertising, Todd Lechler, proved to be one of the best golfers in the Kansas City area this past weekend. Todd and 47 other professional and amateur golfers were invited to participate in the 2nd Annual Watson Challenge at Milburn Golf & Country Club. The mission of The Watson Challenge is to conduct a quality championship to determine who is the best player in Kansas City. And although Tom Watson is that player for 2008, Todd finished the 3-day tournament in a tie for 6th place shooting a tournament score of +7 and finishing a mere 9 strokes back of Tom Watson who finished at one under for the event.

Todd was one of only four golfers to have a final day round under par which helped solidify his top ten position. Tom Watson will issue the challenge to the best players again in 2009 when The Challenge will be played June 13-15 at Shadow Glen Golf Club in Olathe, and you can bet on Todd being prepared to compete at the highest level and hopefully come out of it with the trophy.
