PGA Tour : AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am final leaderboard here.
If you want a Canadian connection for this years winner at Pebble Beach, Tom Hoge last won a pro event 11 years ago on the Mackenzie Tour here in Canada, where guys were driving themselves and young families from coast to coast in old RV's, all looking for the jackpot that was the PGA or European Tours.
Today Hoge who is 32, born in North Carolina, lives in Fargo,North Dakota realised that dream beating Jordan Spieth who never had to drive an RV, by 2 strokes 63 69 68 68 -19, the final difference the famous par 3 17th, birdie for Hoge, bogey for Spieth.
Canadians: Nick Taylor T14 69 69 69 69 -11, Adam Hadwin T16 72 68 68 69 -10, Mac Hughes T16 71 69 67 70 -10
Taylor Pendrith T49 70 69 69 74 -5, Adam Svensson T49, 69 63 77 73 -5
David Hearn MDF 72 69 70 -4 Michael Gligic MC..
Opinion: Regarding the 42 PGA Tour /DP World Tour stars that chose to play for the appearance money in Saudi rather than at Pebble, Peter Jacobsen spoke out, chiding them for missing what he calls "the most important tournament on the PGA Tour schedule", and Brandel Chamblee took Phil Mickelson to task for his "obnoxious greed" attack on the PGA Tour from his hotel in Saudi Arabia.
Full details are available on Google.
Next week they all fly over to Phoenix for the Waste Management Phoenix Open, where unlike Saudi Arabia where alcohol and smoking is strictly prohibited, well let's just say it's served for breakfast.
