The Young Guns won this year's Woodlawn Memorial.

ESTEVAN - The Young Guns remain on top in the annual battle of the generations at the TS&M Woodlawn Golf Course.

The Young Guns defeated the Old Boys 19 1/2-12 1/2 to win their third straight Memorial Golf Tournament, held at Woodlawn Saturday and Sunday.

Using a format similar to the Ryder Cup – which pits top golfers from the U.S. and Europe – Woodlawn's Memorial sees players compete in team and individual showdowns using a match play format. The Woodlawn Memorial has teams of 16 players instead of 12, and all players compete in each of the three events.

The Young Guns jumped out to a big lead on Saturday, winning 5 1/2-2 1/2 in both best ball and alternate shot play for an 11-5 edge. Then they won 8 1/2-7 1/2 in Sunday's singles matches.

Anthony Melle was the captain and Marcus Friess was the assistant captain of the victors. Other team members were Dustin Wilson, Reece Donovan, Taysen Holt, Scott Sykes, Brad Wilhelm, Kristian Kallis, Jace Carlisle, Erik McKersie, Chase Gedak, Drew Kocur, Reegan Robinson, Preston Erickson, Drew Fenwick and Ryan Stovin.

The tournament is held in memory of Rod Fagerheim, Pat Messer, Dave Price and Parnell Pidhorny, who were all a big part of the course for many years.
