Kinder, Louisiana – Todd Doss of Mandeville successfully defended his title in thrilling fashion at the 36th Louisiana Senior Amateur Championship, capturing his second consecutive victory after a dramatic two-hole playoff over Shane Goff of Broussard. Doss finished at 6-under par 210 for the championship and clinched the win with a 35-foot eagle putt on the second playoff hole.

Doss, the reigning champion, posted rounds of 71-66-73 at Koasati Pines at Coushatta. His bogey-free 66 in Friday’s second round was the difference-maker, vaulting him into the lead heading into Saturday’s final round. Goff made a hard charge with a tournament-low 65 on Saturday to tie Doss at 210 (-6), forcing a playoff.

The playoff began on hole #9, where both players made routine pars. The duo then moved to hole #1, a par-5, for the second playoff hole. After Goff nearly holed out for eagle from just off the green but settled for birdie, Doss drained a dramatic 35-foot eagle putt to seal the victory.

Goff’s valiant final round included seven birdies and just one bogey, earning him runner-up honors and a $200 prize. Robby McWilliams of Benton rounded out the top three at 213 (-3) after steady rounds of 73-67-73.

The 54-hole championship was hosted at the renowned Koasati Pines at Coushatta, where Louisiana’s top senior amateurs faced firm conditions, a challenging layout, and perfect weather for elite competition.

The Louisiana Golf Association extends its appreciation to the staff and volunteers at Koasati Pines for their exceptional hospitality and championship-level course setup.
