2009 Charlotte County Open champion Chris Trout takes his second shot out of the greenside bunker on the 18th hole at Riverwood Golf Club Oct. 17 in the final round of the 2010 Charlotte County Open. Trout would double-bogey the hole to drop into a tie with Gary Sica, Jr., who had birdied the same hole in the previous group. Sica won a one-hole playoff on the 18th after Trout found the same trap and made bogey.
