Clutch Final Hole
After a pair of bogeys on the 16th and 17th holes, Dunlea and Laberge came to 18 in a tie for the lead and needing at least a net birdie to seal the win.
Dunlea ended up making 5 for 4 on the hole which guaranteed at least a sudden death playoff for the title.
However, Laberge dropped a 4 for 3 on top of him to give the defending champs the title once again.
