Huron Expositor, 2000-09-13, Page 1414-T1111 INJwOM IXPOSfT011, $.N.m*sr 13, 2000 Sports Bermuda and U.S. golfers attend local men's tournament The Canadian Open and the Seaforth Men's Invitational went head to head again this year and both were a resounding success. i -imagine that most golfers and non=golfers were glued to their television sets on .Sunday afternoon as -Tiger did what Cam and i expected him to do as soon as he won the British Open in July. He came to Canada to add Trevitto's triple Crown record to his stat book,apd take home the trophythat his hero.. Jack Nicklaus.never could. i was on the putting green Tuesday afternoon when the young golfing phenom made his way to the practice area. It was reminiscent of the paparazzi that followed Princess Diana everywhere she went. . • . Photographers, reporter;, security guards and fans all tripping over each other as Tiger strode purposely 'to the far end- of the range to hit some shots.. I felt • a • mixture 'of sympathy and admiration: sympathy for the fact that there is no peace for the man. If he doesn't keep moving the followers are like gnats .that will pounce -on him. demanding autographs and • answers. , 1 telt admiration for the. • fact that in spite of. the hullabaloo around him. he can reman focused on the .task at hand atterhitting some shots on the range he passed near on his way to the . putting. green and bunker area where he proceeded to work on his game. I 1)watched as he holed tour out of 10 chip shots , the guy truly is amazing - He proved .it again on . Sunday when he hit that six Iron onto the 18th from- the bunker. What skill. What -panache: What intestinal Tartan chameleon fortitude. What a champion! Let's hope he,defends in Montreal. i. think he will for the additional reason that he missed the cut there the last time the Canadian Open was played at Royal Montreal. Ken Doig Jr. worked for Sandy Lyle this past week. The . former Masters Champion made the cut and had a good round on Saturday. Steve Bennett was at the Open on Thursday following Mike Weir who had a tough week. There were lots of Seaforthians who made tie trip to Oakville. - Don't forget this week you can see the Canadian Tour in Sarnia at Huron Oaks where Mike Weir developed his stellar golf game. Competition begins on' Thursday. The. Seaforth Men's Invitational hosted 140 golfers from all over Ontario. as well as from Bermuda and the U.S. Jeremy.Ford, of Stratford won the event with 'a two under par 69. *Richard Schilbe of Widder Station 'was the low net. winner at net 65' Richard's gross lcore was, a smooth 70 just one back of Ford.
