PLANTATION, Fla. – With the Web.com Tour on a brief hiatus, Dan McCarthy of Syracuse, NY, has returned to the Minor League Golf Tour to keep his game sharp.

He birdied seven of his first 10 holes on the East course, then added two bogeys and an eighth birdie to win by one shot.

Kris Wilcoxon of Easton, MD, was second among 35 starters with a 66 on six birdies and a bogey.

Next on the Web.com Tour schedule is the Chitimacha/Louisiana Open March 21-25 at LeTriomphe Country Club in Broussard, LA McCarthy ranks 107th on the 2019 Web.com money list with $26,625. In more than two full seasons, he has made 43 starts, 24 cuts and earned $110,470.
