For years, Zach Harry lived in a place familiar to many Purple Bag golfers. Close. Close to the lead. Close to contention. Close to a Purple Jacket.
At Grand Falls, the leaderboard shifted throughout the day as contenders emerged and champions made their move. Brandon Smid threatened a third jacket. Jordan Kline made a charge. Kory Schwan and Lee Kessler found themselves in the mix.
As the field made its way toward the Falls on the iconic 18th hole, Zach found himself exactly where he needed to be, within striking distance.
Yet when the tournament reached its defining moments, Zach was still there. Waiting.
And when the final score was posted, he stood alone.
For the first time in his Purple Bag career, Zach Harry slipped on the Purple Jacket.
