Congratulations to a great week at the Sony Open for Corey Conners. If you've been following along you'll know that he had to Monday qualify just to get in the field then went on to shoot 64 64 on the weekend to finish T3 behind Matt Kuchar who won by 4 shots.
As a result Connors has now won $833,813 in 6 events and is up to 19th on the PGA Tour money list. Remember he T2 back in October at the Sanderson Farms.
He is one of eight Canucks in the field for this week's Desert Classic (the old Bob Hope) along with 2003 winner Mike Weir, Adam Hadwin, David Hearn, Ben Silverman, Adam Svensson, Nick Taylor and Roger Sloan.
The LPGA has a new event, the Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions at Lake Buena Vista in Florida. It's an invitational for winners only over the past 2 years. Brooke Henderson is in the field.
Meanwhile the seniors on the Champions Tour play the Mitsubisi Electric Championship where Stephen Ames is the lone Canadian.
FYI the Web.com Tour which is in the Bahamas this week has scrapped it's playoff format and will have a new year long points system that will determine the top 75 players who will make it into the Tour final.
The European Tour resumes in Abu Dhabi this week where Tommy Fleetwood will try to win it for the third straight year. Of note Brooks Koepka is in the field.
