Qualicum Beach Memorial Golf Club Wins 2009 Tournament of Champions

West Vancouver, BC - May 25, 2009

On a perfect day for golf at Capilano Golf & Country Club, the team from Qualicum Beach Memorial Golf Club shot a stellar 6-under 64 to win by two shots at the 2009 PGA of BC TaylorMade & adidas Golf Tournament of Champions.

For the 1st place finish Qualicum Beach Head Professional Ross Mantell took home a cheque for $1600 and his amateur playing partner Peter Drummond received a $650 gift certificate for TaylorMade-adidas merchandise.

The course was in amazing shape and every team enjoyed the majestic beauty of Capilano Golf & Country Club. Course Superintendant Adam Zubek had the golf course in tip top form and the quick, undulating greens proved a challenge to many.

The team of Jeff Buder and Andrew Mitchell from Point Grey Golf & CC fired a 4-under par 66 to finish in second place while Point Roberts Golf & CC rounded out the top three, shooting 67. Co-defending Champions from 2008, Kelowna Golf & CC, shot 68 to finish fourth all alone.
