The end of the 2012 amateurgolf.com
Tournament Series season means it's time
to
congratulate the
Players of the
Year.
The
amateurgolf.com
Tournament Series hosted 12 events
throughout California and traveled to
Bandon,
Ore. for the annual amateurgolf.com
Bandon
Dunes Two-Man Links Championship.
The tournament series began in January
with
the New Year's Skins Game at Aviara
and
wrapped up this past weekend with the
2012
Tour Championship held at
Hiddenbrooke Golf
Club. And, as always, there was stellar
play
throughout the year.
No one played better than co-Players of
the
Year Randy Haag (pictured, left) and Alex
Franklin.
The two
combined for four victories in 2012 and
represent the amateurgolf.com
Tournament
Series
well. Mark Miller earned Player of the Year
honors among Seniors while Scott Carelli
edged
Bart Goldie for Net Player of the Year.
As we close the book on 2012 and look
forward
to another strong year of
tournament golf
in 2013, let's look at the accomplishments
of
the Players of the Year:

a

California Mid-
Am Master and Senior. He was also active
on
the national and international levels of
mid-
am and senior golf. Haag won the Scratch
players Mid-Am and tied for third at the

Open.
Alex Franklin,
Co-

the Year: Franklin, of San

became the first amateurgolf.com

piece of
the award Haag has held since its
inception.

won the
Silicon Valley Amateur and tied for third at
the
Christmas Classic.
Mark Miller

In addition to his
stellar

Mark Miller,
Senior

the Year: Miller, of Antioch,

award. Miller won twice, taking the
Diablo

for the Senior's top honor.

the Year: Carelli, of San
