PGA Tour Canada season opener begins Thursday
The clouds may roll in this weekend but nothing will lift the golden glow that envelopes Uplands Golf Club and Canadian golf in general as it comes off one its greatest historic triumphs.The euphoria in the sport across the nation still lingers from Abbotsford native Nick Taylor’s victory Sunday to become the first Canadian to win the RBC Canadian Open since Pat Fletcher of Victoria in 1954.
“In the same way, Nick [Taylor’s] win will be inspirational to the next generation of golfers in Canada because a lot of kids were watching and following along Sunday,” said du Toit. The former Canadian Tour became the Mackenzie Tour PGA Tour Canada in 2013 and 56 PGA Tour Canada alumni have advanced to play on the PGA Tour over the past decade with 18 PGA Tour victories between them.
“You could have had a great amateur or college career, but you start all over again at square one when you turn pro, and you have to make it here [PGA Tour Canada] before you make it anywhere else,” said du Toit. “It will help the game grow across the country. Four Canadians have already won on the PGA Tour this season. Canadians are on the rise in golf.”
