Greg Goode, Golfweek's top super senior, in familiar spot at Golf Club of Georgia
There's a reason Greg Goode is the top-ranked super senior player in the Golfweek National Senior Amateur Rankings. On Tuesday, in the opening round of the Golfweek Super Senior National Championship, Goode, from Salina, Kansas, opened his day with two birdies at the Golf Club of Georgia in Alpharetta. He closed with one, too. The first-round 1-under 71 he pieced together was enough to leave him tied with Mark Benefield of Peachtree Corners, Georgia. From here, Goode will look to add another title to what has been a head-turning year on the senior circuit. Goode already has won the Moot Thomas and the National Senior Hall of Fame in 2025. He has a handful of other runner-up finishes, including at the Golfweek Senior National at Grandover Resort in Greensboro, North Carolina, last month and the Golfweek Senior Amateur in Palm Desert, California earlier in the spring. Goode is a three-time Kansas Senior Player of the Year who has played a busy national senior schedule the past few years. He narrowly finished second to Jim Starnes in Golfweek's Super Senior Player of the Year race in 2024. Behind Goode and Benefield, a loaded Super Senior division features plenty of challengers. Three men are tied for third at even par: Doug Stiles, Marcus Beck and Richard Kerper. Defending champion Stevie Cannady, who lives in Pooler, Georgia, is in the four-man pack at 1 over. For the first time this year, Golfweek's event at the Golf Club of Georgia also features a limited-field senior invitational. Todd Doss of Mandeville, Louisiana, leads that division after a 2-under 70 in the opening round. Doss continues to find his place in senior golf after aging into senior competition last year. For Doss, winner of the Louisiana Senior Amateur the past two years, that place is usually near the top. At the Golf Club of Georgia, Doss is two shots ahead of Greg Kennedy of Peachtree Corners, Georgia, and Allen Peake, of Macon, Georgia. In the Legend division, Bill Byrne of Madison, Mississippi, is 2 over and leads Robert Allen II of John's Creek, Georgia, by a shot. Frank Polizzi of Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania, is 2 under and has a five-shot cushion in the Super Legend division. Polizzi won the Golfweek Player of the Year Classic to start the year.

Golfweek adds Senior Division Invitational in return to Golf Club of Georgia
When Golfweek's senior circuit returns to the Golf Club of Georgia in Alpharetta this month, it will be with a new wrinkle: the tournament annually featuring divisions for Super Seniors, Legends and Super Legends players will also now feature a limited-field event for Seniors. All four divisions will compete at the Golf Club of Georgia's Lakeside Course from July 8-10. The private club's original course was built in 1991 and features rolling hills and undulating greens. The course is well-versed in hosting elite competitions, given that it annually hosts the Georgia Cup, a match between the reigning U.S. Amateur champion and British Amateur champion before the Masters Tournament each April. Georgia Tech has also long hosted the Golf Club of Georgia Collegiate Invitational, which annually draws some of the top teams from around the nation. This year's newly formed Senior Division Invitational features perennial senior division contender Todd Doss, who finished runner-up at the Golfweek Senior Tournament of Champions and the Golfweek Player of the Year Classic and more recently, won the Louisiana Senior Amateur for the second year in a row. To defend his title at the state senior amateur, Doss made a 35-footer for eagle on the second playoff hole. In addition to Doss, keep an eye on Tony Wise in the senior field. Wise, who hails from Kentucky, recently placed third at the Society of Seniors Senior Masters. In 2023, Wise qualified for the U.S. Senior Open. In the Super Senior division, Stevie Cannady is back to defend his 2024 title. For Cannady, from Pooler, Georgia, last year's title was a major breakthrough. 'I've had seconds and I've had thirds and I've never won, so this is the first,' he told Golfweek last year. To defend, he'll have to get past several top players in his age group, including Greg Goode, the top-ranked player aged 65-69 according to the Golfweek National Senior Amateur Rankings, and Jim Starnes, the reigning Golfweek Super Senior Player of the Year. This deep division also includes Marcus Beck, the 2024 Player of the Year; Bob Edens, a sports psychologist who has worked with many players in golf and other sports; and Mark Burden, a former Duke golfer and a regular in Georgia State Golf Association events. An opportunity exists for a title defense in each of the other two divisions as well, with Legends winner Neil Spitalny of Chattanooga teeing it up again this week and Don Kuehn of Kansas City back in the Super Legends division.
