Long takes 18th Metropolitan Amateur title

Old Hickory's Adam Long posted a 1-over par 211 then watched as his two closest pursuers - Norwood's Skip Berkmeyer and Meadowbrook's Justin Bardgett - attempt chances to tie at the 18th green of the 18th playing of the Metropolitan Amateur Championship. Berkmeyer lipped out his 13-foot birdie putt while Bardgett's chip shot from 22 feet spun out of the cup. Long, a junior to be at Duke University, has played a predominantly national schedule for the past few years. His win at Norwood was his first significant amateur title in Missouri.
