Amanda Balionis celebrated Chris Gotterup’s triumph at the Genesis Scottish Open
Amanda Balionis shared a social media post on her Instagram account yesterday, giving a heads-up to Chris Gotterup’s victory at the Genesis Scottish Open, which concluded last week. Balionis explained that Gotterup had dreamed of winning the event since childhood and had taken down top-tier players like Rory McIlroy in the field.
“It doesn’t get better than a Sunday like this. The best in the world battling it out where the game began… and it’s @chrisgotterup who gets it done. I may be biased as a fellow Northeasterner, but man was it fun watching the young Jersey kid figure out links golf and take down a world-class field, including going toe-to-toe with 🌍 #2 Rory McIlroy. This is just the beginning for the big hitter, and the emotions that poured out afterwards tells you everything you need to know about what this game, and win, means to him.” said Balionis
Gotterup won the Genesis Scottish Open with 15 under in total after scoring 68 in the first round of the tournament with two birdies on the front nine and two on the back nine. Followed by 61 in the second round of the event with six birdies on the front nine and three on the back nine. The third and fourth rounds saw 70 and 66 with two and six birdies, respectively.
