And just like that, another champion has been crowned at the close of the 6th running of the GolfBC Championship at Gallagher's Canyon Golf Club, the penultimate stop on the PGA TOUR Canada in the season-long points race for the Fortinet Cup. A massive thank you goes out to the team at Gallagher's Canyon, including golf operations, ground maintenance, and food & beverage, as well all the volunteers, PGA TOUR Canada, and "Team Vassos" of VMC Media - none of this would be possible without the collaboration and dedication of everyone involved! This truly was an incredible year for the GolfBC Championship.
With an impressive finishing score of -23, including a 10-under 61 during his second round, 22-year old Noah Goodwin hoisted the winners trophy, aptly named Gallagher's Gold. The full recap of the final round from Noah and the battle for first place, written by Brad Ziemer, can be found below!
GolfBC Group also announced a donation of $75,000 to the BC Cancer Foundation during the closing ceremony of the GolfBC Championship, bringing the 6-year total charitable contribution to $750,000. With a focus on local initiatives within the Kelowna community, we are proud to say that the GolfBC Championship is one of the most charitable stops on PGA TOUR Canada! You can read more about the positive impact that the Championship has brought to the community in a press release below!
The GolfBC Championship also saw two prominent British Columbians secure their spots in the PGA TOUR Canada Fortinet Cup Championship being held in Kitchener, Ontario, from September 15th - 18th. Full details on that below.
Also included in the eNews this month - it's the Last Kick at the Pin at Nicklaus North and a refreshed menu with exciting new items at the Okanagan Golf Club!
It's last call for patio season, make sure to take advantage of the good weather while it lasts! Whether it's Happy Hour, post-round aprés, or dinner with your favourite table of people, bring your sunglasses and we'll see you out there this September.
Cheers!

"Goodwin won with a total of 23-under after closing with a seven-under 64. He and Stevens, who shot a 65, were paired together and staged quite the battle, especially on the back nine..."

Gallagher's Canyon
"The GolfBC Championship is the final full-field event of the PGA TOUR Canada season and the last opportunity for players to lock up spots in the season-ending Fortinet Cup Championship.

Two British Columbians, Chris Crisologo of Richmond and Kimberley’s Jared du Toit, punched their tickets to the Tour Championship by making the cut this week at Gallagher’s Canyon Golf & Country Club..."
