Let The CN Canadian Women's Open Begin
Hello. Just looking at the field for the CN Canadian Women's Open. I must say I'm pleasantly surprised.
Missing are Annika Sorenstam, Michelle Wie, Karrie Webb and Lorena Ochoa. They are arguably the top 4 in women's golf today. However, there are good players there, including Se Ri Pak and Natalie Gulbis, both crowd favourites. Here's hoping there will be some names at the top of the list.
Kudos to CN for taking on sponsorship of this tournament, especially with its scheduled date the week after the Women's British Open. Their decision to increase the purse has helped with the field quality. It may take another $1M to get the top 4 in the field however.
Good luck in particular to North Halton's own Mary Ann Lapointe. If I listed all her accomplishments here, I'd run out of disk space. She is one of the most accomplished Canadian amateur golfers of all time, and was this year inducted into the Ontario Golf Hall of Fame. Good luck Mary Ann against this LPGA field.
Good luck too to Robbie Greenwell of North Halton in the upcoming Canadian and US Amateur championships. Robbie won our club championship by a mile this past weekend. I had the pleasure of playing with Robbie on the Friday before when he shot 67. He made the game look very easy. Continued success!
Regards,
Steve
