Fleisher Wins Florida
PGA By 4
Miami Herald
July 14, 1980
Bruce Fleisher of Miami shot a three-under-par 69 for a
272 total Sunday to win the $40,000
Florida PGA Open by four strokes.
Larry Rinker of Stuart was tied with Fleisher on the
13th hole but faded to finish four
strokes back at 276.
"I got lucky because I didn't really hit the ball
well," Fleisher said. "About the
ninth hole, I really thought Rinker
would catch me."
Fleisher, 31, a former U.S. amateur champion, earned
$4,200.
Amateur David Peoples of Orlando was third at 73-277.
Gordon Jones of Windermere finished at
280. Robbie Gilmore Jr. of Atlantic
Beach and Dallas Apelgren of north Palm
Beach were at 281, followed by Bob Duval
of Jacksonville at 282.
Tied at 283 were Richard Bassett of Miami Lakes, Sam
Trahan of Cocoa, James Weeden of
Deerfield Beach and Gary Baker of Miami.
