Tuesday tidbits,...Canadian scores..

Thanks for all your support regarding my missus, who had her cancer operation on Thursday. She is home now from hospital, very weak, sore and tired, sleeping a lot, but I remain confident we will beat this horrible disease. I have already wished her a happy Valentine's.

Despite all the snow shovelling and looking after her this weekend I kept my eye on what was happening in warmer climes and have just posted my thoughts on Jordan Spieth's impressive win at Pebble Beach.

In Malaysia where I doubt if they've ever seen snow, it was the Paraguayan,
Fabrizio Zanotti who roared up the leaderboard with a -9 63 including an eagle on the final hole to win his second European Tour title at the Maybank Championship.

He began the day six shots off the lead but he took the lead on the 17th then on the par five 18th as he was on in 2 mighty blows then made a 15 footer to get to -19'

American David Lipsky was in front most of the day and was tied for the lead standing on the 18th tee, but couldn't match Zanotti's eagle at the last.

This event usually means great showing by Bernhard Langer in his American home Boca Raton, but this year it was Scott McCarron who like Fabrizio Zanotti, eagled the par 5 18th on the Old Course at Broken Sound with a drive and a 7 iron to within 6 feet, to shoot 67 -17 to edge Kenny Perry and Carlos Franco by a shot.

Stephen Ames was right in contention after his 63 on Saturday, and with a -5 67 on Suday he finished T6 at -14


Tyler Costigan from Golf Canada reports that Amateur Squad member Maddie Szeryk posted a final-round 70 (-2) on Sunday to share a three-way tie of second place at the Florida State Match-Up.

Her performance was underlined by an opening-round, seven-birdie effort en route to carding a tournament-low 66 (-6). The Texas A&M junior went on to finish the event at -8 to lead the Aggies to a third place team result. Individually, the reigning Canadian Order of Merit winner came up three strokes short in her bid to defend the Seminole Invitational title; she took home the honours in 2016.

Meanwhile on the Web.com in Columbia, Canadian Corey Conners shot -4 67 to finish T17. Ben Silverman shot E 71, T62 at +4. The winner in a playoff was former Canadian Tour player Ethan Tracy.
