“With experience as a director at the Junior Masters and years of tournament management as a club professional, I think they were aware of my knowledge and that no one else asked to take on that role.”
It was a year long enough to take on the role, considering that this year’s Tri-Course was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic. But the tournament under the North went smoothly and Feiner and the rest of the committee – Mike Greb, Greg Romano, Tim Monfeli, Roger Hoff, Paul Zarek, Gary Goodsell, Joe O’Brien – have no plans to make significant changes.

Two years after resigning as a professional chief at Johnson Park, he finally obtained his amateur status.
