Freddy, who is often called the ‘paddle pop lion’ with his long hair, came off a solid 78 yesterday to continue his stellar form today. In today’s round, Barton went out in an incredible one under par 36 and came home with a four over par 39. This title is the first for Freddy, and his excitement was clearly evident in the clubhouse following his game.
