FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Hamilton ON - King's Forest Golf Club in Hamilton ON was the site of GHT Event #3 on Monday June 9 and Conor O'Shea (Piper's Heath) took advantage of ideal scoring conditions.  With afternoon rain on Sunday and very little wind throughout the day on Monday it made for slightly easier course conditions then seen in the past.  

O'Shea has an aggressive style of game and it showed as he made 7 birdies and 4 bogies en route to a round of three under par 69.  He steadied the ship with three straight birdies on holes 8-9-10 to get to 4 under par for his round.  Back to back bogies on the tough 12th and 13th holes dropped him to 2 under par heading into the home stretch.  A birdie on the par 5 fifteenth hole and 3 closing pars helped to seal the win for O'Shea...

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Burlington ON - A healing golf course scarred from a tragic winter, intense black flies, thick spring rough, and the hottest day of 2014 couldn't keep Jim Zwolak (Credit Valley G&CC) from shining at GHT Event #2 Lowville.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Milton ON - Ed Maunder (Deerfield GC) is becoming the winningest player in GHT history and he's doing it very quickly.  GHT Event #1 Granite Ridge Ruby took place yesterday and due to an extreme winter and undesirable spring conditions, a small field teed it up to kick off the 2014 season.  

The Ruby course at Granite Ridge Golf Club was in fine shape and Ed Maunder took advantage of the scorable conditions to post a 3 under par 67 and capture his sixth win in the last 9 GHT events.  Maunder's 67 was one shot better then Alf Callowhill (Clublink Academy at Glen Abbey) who posted a bogey free 2 under par 68.  Rounding out the Top 3 were Kyle Gibson (King's Forest) and Jim Zwolak (Credit Valley G&CC) who fired rounds of even par 70.  

The GHT would like to Thank PGA of Canada Professional Jeff Czuba and his staff at Granite Ridge for their wonderful hospitality throughout the day.  The next event on the schedule is set for Tuesday May 27 at Lowville Golf Club in Burlington ON.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Waterdown ON - The Golden Horseshoe Area Golf Tour is proud to announce another prominent partner for 2014.  Adams Golf has agreed to support the GHT Senior Order of Merit and offer the players of the Tour a chance to win an award winning Adams Hybrid at the end of the season.

Adams Golf will give the winner of the GHT Senior Order of Merit a Hybrid or Fairway Wood of their choice while each member of the GHT will be entered into a draw at the end of the season for a similar prize.  However, to help increase the odds of those players that play a full schedule, each member will receive one ballot for each round they play.

“We are very pleased to be a part of the Golden Horseshoe Area Golf Tour and have the opportunity to support our PGA of Canada Professionals”.  Said Territory Sales and Marketing Manager Scott Payne.

Waterdown ON - The Golden Horseshoe Area Golf Tour had a wonderful season in 2013 with many of our players doing some great things locally, provincially, and nationally.  Last season we recapped the year with our Top Ten Stories of 2012 and this year we are doing the same for 2013.

There were many stories to choose from and it just goes to show that the GHT is full of talent that can compete at all levels.  One player gave us a record breaking season where some statistics were off the chart.  In June, Many GHT members played in the PGA of Canada Championship and it was a highly seeded individual that grinded out a Quarterfinal appearance.  We saw a hole in one on a par 4 in the Pro/Junior Golf Classic.  GHT members captured 3 PGA of Ontario Championships.  2013 also saw the playing of the Inaugural Club Car Cup in which the team from the Golden Triangle Tour was victorious, however a certain GHT member went 6-0 for the matches.  

The list was made not only by relevance of the event, but the story behind it.  Please continue reading and let us know what you think of this year's stories...

Ed Maunder is Heavy Favourite in GHT Elite 8

10/6/2013

PictureEd Maunder - Courtesy OPGA
Waterdown ON - With Four wins, nearly double the money of the nearest player on the Underground Golf 2013 Money List, a 67.9 scoring average, and 5.14 birdies per round, it's easy to say Ed Maunder has the hot hand going into the Golden Horseshoe Area Golf Tour's final playoff round on Monday.

The new shootout format will make for some interesting story lines, but if Ed Maunder continues his GHT dominance on Monday at Rattlesnake Point Golf Club in Milton, he will raise the John H. Davis Cup for the first time.

Last season, heading into the finals, Maunder was winless but had the most consistent season of all the players, never dropping out of the top 5 in any event.  With one tournament remaining on the schedule, Maunder was knocking on the door in second place behind Yong Woo Kim.  However, a disappointing round of 76 at Glencairn dropped Maunder to third place.  Yong Woo Kim maintained his lead defeating Fraser McIntyre by 6.60 points.

This season Maunder got a bye into the GHT Elite 8 Finals as the Regular Season leader of the CaddyPro Order of Merit...

Waterdown ON - The 2013 Golden Horseshoe Area Golf Tour (GHT) has been dominated by one individual.  However, this can all change in the new playoff format for the Race to the John H. Davis Cup.  

Ed Maunder (Deerfield Golf Club) is on a record setting pace this season in both scoring average and prize money earned.  Not to mention he lead the Caddy Pro Order of Merit by 36 points at the end of the regular season that concluded on August 15.  His 119 points were almost equal to the total points Yong Woo Kim accumulated after 8 events last season to capture the title.

The 2013 edition of the GHT Playoffs for the John H. Davis Cup sees a change in format.  This year the top 16 players from the Caddy Pro Order of Merit will duel it out in two rounds of stoke play with a twist.  The twist is as follows, in the first round of the playoffs on September 16th at Beverly Golf & Country Club, spots 2 through 16 on the Order of Merit (Ed Maunder gets a bye into the finals as the Regular Season point leader) will play in a one round stroke play event with the low 7 players qualifying for the finals on October 7th.  In the finals, the 8 qualified players will then compete in another single round stroke play event with the lowest gross of the 8 players taking home the John H. Davis Cup....
