Will Preston of Grand Rapids won his first GAM tournament while Lauren Timpf of Macomb won her fourth consecutive GAM junior golf title over the last two seasons.
They topped the field of 32 boys and 16 girls who played in the 4th GAM 14 & Under Match Play Championship at Woodside Golf Club in Lansing.
Preston, who will be a freshman at Grand Rapids Catholic Central in the fall, turned back Vibhav Alokam of Ypsilanti 2 and 1 in the nine-hole boys championship flight final match.
Timpf, age 13 of Macomb, topped Mia Melendez of Ann Arbor 2 and 1 in the girls’ championship flight final match. Timpf later went on to reach the quarterfinals of the Michigan Women’s Amateur and took eventual champion and college golfer Anna Kramer all the way to the final hole.
