Carlsbad, CA (October 9, 2006) – King Cobra ambassador Kevin Na used his home course to his advantage this week, going wire-to-wire to win the Mark Christopher Charity Classic. Playing at the par-71 Empire Lakes Golf Course — Na’s home course for the past five years — Na carded a final round 2-under 69 to conclude the tournament at 16-under 268, three strokes clear of the field. Na fired a course record-tying 9-under 62 in the first round and moved to a Tour record-tying six-shot lead at the halfway point.
The win marks the first career Nationwide Tour title in just the second start for the 23-year-old. It is also the seventh victory this year for Cobra ambassadors after Geoff Ogilvy (WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship, U.S. Open), J.B. Holmes (FBR Open), Ian Poulter (Madrid Open) and Jeong Jang (Wegmans LPGA, Japan Women’s Open) won earlier in the year.
Na was competing for the first time since late April, when he withdrew from the PGA Tour’s Shell Houston Open with a broken hand. He will return to the PGA Tour next week.
