Round one is on the books at the 112th Canadian Men’s Amateur championship and it was a golfer from Newfoundland who stole the show.
While many were keeping a close on on the National Team members in the field, it was Newfoundland’s Amateur champion who leaped to the top of the leaderboard. Bursey’s score of 64 (-8) over the Eagle Creek Golf Club layout was just two strokes off the course record and included an eagle on the eighteenth hole. He did not drop a stroke all day long.
“It was a good round, but I started off a little shaky,” said Bursey of his play. “Once I felt my way into it, things just came fairly easily. Not often does a round like that come around, so it was pretty special. To finish with an eagle was a great way to go out. I hit two of my best shots of the day on that last hole. It was a good way to start the tournament, but that’s all it is right now: a solid start. With three more days to go, hopefully there’s more solid golf coming up.”
The Gander native, who also won the NCAA Bandon Dunes Championship, is currently a student at Utah Valley where he plays for the Wolverines.
Players Go Low At Eagle Creek
The Eagle Creek course proved to be the place to score on Monday as all players but one in the top ten were playing the ClubLink-owned Dunrobin, ON area course.
The exception was Steve Diack of British Columbia who recorded a 68 at Royal Ottawa Golf Club, the co-host course in Gatineau, QC that will serve as the sole venue for the final two rounds. Diack has a share of 9th place at -2.
Three players share third place overall including the top golfer from Eastern Ontario, Josh Whalen of Napanee. He was joined at -5 (67) by Marco Trstenjak of Manitoba and Andy Zhang of China.
The best of the golfers from the National Capital region was Eagle Creek member Dwight Reinhart. His even-par round at Royal Ottawa has the reigning Golf Quebec Men’s Match Play champion in a share of 26th.
Play will resume Tuesday as players switch courses. Each must play a round at each host layout before the 36-hole cut is made. The top 70 players and ties will advance to the final two rounds, which will both be held at Royal Ottawa Golf Club.
