By Jeff Steers JTV Sports (August 9, 2020 4:22 PM) Jackson area golfer Joey Badall must have felt like he was in a “Caddyshack” flashback Sunday during the final round of the Jackson Masters Golf Tournament. This relatively unknown golfer from Jackson, Michigan, was about to win the Masters. Only this was the Jackson Masters, not the one in Augusta, Ga. Badall – who does not play in many Jackson area golf tournaments due to work and time constraints – made a 10-foot birdie putt on the first extra hole.

Page shot 73 on Saturday, but followed that up with a 70 on Sunday. Cannon Risner finished third overall with a two-day total of 144. The Leslie High School senior shot the best…
