Plymouth Meeting, Pa. (August 20, 2024) — A cool summer day set the perfect stage for the 2024 Don Deangelis Pro-Am where three teams tied for first place at 15-under par. PGA of America Golf Professional John Kulhamer’s Green Pond Golf Course team of amateurs, Ryan Orcutt, Charles Leon and John Mace, took the top prize in the Net Division following a match of cards.

Talamore C.C.’s Andy Watters, PGA, Jim McFadden, Cesar Garzon and Stan Jakubowski, tied for second place with Coatesville C.C.’s Evan Mitchell, PGA, Nick Popowicz, Steve Popowicz and Justin Morasco.

This event was created by the DeAngelis family and the Philadelphia PGA Section to pay tribute to Don DeAngelis, an accomplished PGA Member and player, who passed in January 2022. DeAngelis was elected to PGA Membership in 1978, and played the game with immense talent, winning the 1985 Pennsylvania Open and playing in the 1978 U.S. Open at Cherry Hills Country Club in Denver, Colo., and winning a Section tournament in six straight decades. His most recent win was in September 2021, when he won the 2021 Philadelphia Senior PGA Professional Championship’s Super Senior Division, and also shot his age, a 69.
