Chris Wiemers celebrated his 32nd birthday in style Sunday with a "hat trick" at the 18th annual John Mullen Pro-Am golf tournament at Heritage Hills Goilf Course in McCook.

Wiemers, a McCook High School alum who is now the golf pro at Eagle Run in Omaha, captured the pro individual title with two-day score of 133 and won Friday night's Horse Race.

He shot a 68 on Saturday and had the low round Sunday with a 65. Quite appropriately on his 32nd birthday, he posted a 32 on his front nine Sunday.
