PGA Tour RBC Canadian Open leaderboard http://www.pgatour.com/tournaments/rbc-canadian-open/leaderboard.html
The RBC Canadian Open used to be played in September and I must admit over all these years I have seen all kinds of weather, often torrential rain and lightning when the thunderstorms would roll through, huge winds that one year knocked out all the power, this year it is in the midst of the longest drought I can remember.
Temperature will reach the high 90's F down in the valley holes today so if you are going, be prepared.
Day 2 is well underway, Dustin Johnson who shared the first round lead has dropped 4 shots down in that valley with a bogey at 11, a double at the par 3 12th then another bogey at the 13th. He has just made a birdie at the easy par 5 16th so is currently at -3.
Luke List continues to lead at -6 and he is in the late wave today.
It was a mixed bag for the Canadian contingent, the lowlight for me was to see Graham DeLaet suffer from another attack of the chipping yips on his way to +5 77.
The highlight for me was the play of amateur Jared du Toit from BC who had an eagle, birdie finish for what he called one of the best 3 rounds of his career, a -5 67 T3 ! and apparently he had never even played the Abbey before this week.
Then how about pro referee and amateur golfer, Garret Rank, his playing partner who got on the edge of the 18th in two, then promptly rolled in an eagle putt for a nice -3 69.
Here are the other 11 Canadian scores:
Adam Hadwin shot E 72, David Hearn will be disappointed with +2 74. Adam Cornelson, Corey Conners and Nick Taylor all shot +3 75. Blair Hamilton lives in nearby Burlington shot +5 77 as did Brad Fritsch. Mike Weir and another lefty, Branson Ferrier shot +6 78.
Another amateur Hugo Bernard had a tough day, +9 81 and his friend from Quebec, Dave Levesque was far from his best +13 85.
