Voigt should have won the fourth, but only got a half in 5 when he missed a 4-foot putt after putting his second shot over the green and chipping up short. Grimes hooked his tee shot out of bounds at the fifth and conceded the hole to Volgt, who had hit a straight shot down the middle, well over the ditch, and pitched his sécond to the' green.
