Canucks at Web.com Q School this week

Eleven Canadians will begin their quest at securing or improving playing status for the Web.com Tour’s 2014 season this week at PGA West’s TPC Stadium and Nicklaus tournament courses in La Quinta, Calif., December 12-17.
This year marks the beginning of the PGA TOUR’s new qualifying format that will see players given status solely on the Web.com Tour for the 2014 season at the conclusion of 108 holes. In past years, the top-25 players were awarded a direct ticket to the PGA TOUR.

Canadians in the field at Final Qualifying:

  • Yohann Benson, Montréal, Que.
  • Cam Burke, New Hamburg, Ont.
  • Devin Carrey, Surrey, B.C.
  • Albin Choi, Toronto, Ont.
  • Max Gilbert, St-Georges, Que.
  • Derek Gillespie, Oshawa, Ont.
  • Justin Shin, Maple Ridge, B.C.
  • Roger Sloan, Merritt, B.C.
  • Nick Taylor, Abbotsford, B.C.
  • Riley Wheeldon, Comox, B.C.
  • Eugene Wong, North Vancouver, B.C.
The 11 Canadians in the field this week will look to finish inside the top-45, which will give them exempt status until the Web.Com Tour’s second periodic re-order of the 2014 season. Below is a breakdown of how Web.com Tour membership will be awarded at the conclusion of play.
