The Tony Basso Group Black Diamond Golf Tournament attracted hundreds of golfers to Carbon County over the weekend to compete in the three-day event.
On Friday, the Carbon Country Club hosted the Black Diamond Pro-Am. The event brought together one professional golfer with four amateurs in each team. In total, 21 teams competed.
Then, on Saturday and Sunday, the Black Diamond Open took place with 42 pros and 160 amateurs. Competitors played one round of golf each day, totaling their two scores for a final score to determine the winner. In the end, Todd Tanner walked away with the first place honors and $2,200, shooting nine under par between the two days. Chris Moody shot six under pair for the tournament, claiming second place and $1,900. Clint Godfrey and Zach Johnson tied for third, shooting four under par and taking home $1,350 each.
“I would like to congratulate the winner, Todd Tanner, as he has another Diamond victory under his belt,” Tom King, Carbon Country Club’s head golf professional, shared following the tournament. “I also want to say thanks to all the players for making this one of the best events in the state. Last, my staff: you guys are amazing and this course and event could not run without you.”
