After the thrilling conclusion of the Curtis Cup with Catriona's European Team beating the USA 15-13 for their 2nd victory in a row at the Inverness Club in Toledo, the golfing world will turn their attention to the Ryder Cup, all set to go albeit with a very restricted all American crowd at Whistling Straits, Sheboygan, Wisconsin from September 24-26.
However before that the 2021-22 wrap around season begins for the rest of the guys, and it features a record 8 Canadians.
The Fortinet Championship at the Silverado Course in Napa California, previously the Safeway Classic last won by Stewart Cink, September 16-19 opens the season up for the top 125 and various others.
Corey Connors with 8 top 10's last year and a trip to represent Canada at Tokyo 2020 leads the way ranked #32 and his Olympic partner Mac Hughes will begin at #55. Adam Hadwin will look to improve on #124 while Korn Ferry standout Adam Svensson begins at a career high #171.
