Andy Newcomb Wins Plains Division Opener at Lake of the Ozarks

Andy Newcomb overcame major weather changes to claim victory at the Plains Division opener on Lake of the Ozarks, edging last year's champion by just over a pound and pocketing $59,795. Newcomb's comprehensive knowledge of the lake paid dividends on the final day, when he threw caution to the wind and chased big weights. With a three-day total of 50 pounds, 7 ounces, Newcomb finally sealed the deal and won the tournament.
