Jones Family Captures Another Utah Amateur Title

Reigning UGA Player of the Year Cooper Jones makes it two-for-two for the Joneses.

There must be something in the water at the Clark and Angie Jones family home right now. Maybe something just a bit sweeter in their Alpine, Utah home. 

For the second week in a row a Jones family member won on Utah’s Southern Swing of amateur tournaments that count points toward the Utah Golf Association’s Player Performance Ranking list. 

Count this one up to sibling rivalry. 

With just a one-stroke lead over younger brother and reigning UGA Player of the Year Cooper Jones, BYU freshman Zac Jones was looking for a second win in as many weeks in St. George, Utah. 

Zac Jones finished the opening round of the St. George Amateur Jan. 14 with an (-8) 65. Looking over his shoulder heading into the final round Saturday was Cooper and Jax McMurdie.
