Fairchild competes in Dickson

Warren County High School golfer Austin Fairchild traveled to Dickson, Tn. on Wednesday to compete in the Tennessee Golf Associa-tions’ Junior Tour tournament at the Greystone Golf Club.

Fairchild finished the 6,858 yard par 72 course with a score of 9-over-par for the two day event, which was good enough for second place in the 16-18 age group.

On day one, Fairchild made the turn at 6-over-par and played the back nine even. On day two Fairchild cut four strokes off of his first round total turning the corner with a score of 38.

He birdied No.10 and played the next two holes at even-par, but a double bogey on the par 4, 13th hole stopped his charge. He eagled No.16 and found a birdie on No.17 as he finished the back nine at 1- over-par.

Fairchild finished three strokes behind Smyrna’s John Webster.
