The Senior Low Country Regional, held at Caledonia Golf Club and True Blue Golf Club, showcased exceptional golf talent. A total of 112 players from 14 local tours competed fiercely for the top position. The weather was warm yet dry, and the impressive scores reflected the golfers' preparedness for the event.
In the Champ Flight, both Scott Roberts (Charlotte, NC) and Bruce Gant (Charlotte, NC) finished Day One at one over par at Caledonia. However, on Day Two, Roberts and Marty Bunch (Charleston, SC) delivered impressive performances, each recording rounds of five under par (67). This outstanding play secured Roberts the victory and elevated Bunch to second place. Gant managed to maintain his position in third place with an even par round of 72.
The A Flight proved to be a competitive contest throughout the day, with the lead changing hands multiple times. Ultimately, Jace Gause (Charleston, SC) emerged victorious, finishing with rounds of 75 and 76 for a total score of 146 (+9), two strokes ahead of four players—Tony Apperson (Augusta, GA), Eddie Jaggers (Central Carolina), Bob Shehan (Eastern NC), and John Caulfield (Eastern, NC) —who all tied for second place at +11.

The D Flight competition proved to be as fiercely contested as it is each year. Sherrill Johnson (Eastern NC) achieved a pivotal par on the final hole, securing his victory and displaying enthusiasm that made him one of the most exuberant winners. Tying for second place was T.J. James (Augusta, GA) and last year's champion, David Kubik (Augusta, GA). James’s round of 84 earned him a spot in the scorecard playoff for second place.
