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.
The Burlington Ontario based Lowville Golf Club was host to the second event on the GHT schedule and it put up a true test of tough conditions for the field of 21 professionals. The Course was hit hard by severe winter damage but Zwolak's round of 5 under par 66 became the real talk of the day...
Zwolak's round featured six birdies with a turkey trot (three birdies in a row) coming on holes 12, 13 and 14. His only blemish came on the final hole where he made his lone bogey of the day.
Finishing in second place three shots behind, was Conor O'Shea (Piper's Heath) who fired a 2 under par 69. Last season O'Shea fired a 7 under par 64 on the same layout to capture his only GHT victory of the year. He got off to a blistering start with 4 birdies in the first five holes, but a stumbling 3 over on the final three holes pushed him into the runner up position.
Rounding out the top 5 were Alf Callowhill (Clublink Academy at Glen Abbey), 2013 John H. Davis Cup Champion Ed Maunder (Deerfield GC), and 2012 Club Professional Champion of Canada Brian Hutton (Trafalgar G&CC) all posted even par 71.
Other Notes:
Jim Zwolak takes the early lead in the Race to the John H. Davis Cup Full Standings
Brian Hutton sits on top of Senior Order of Merit Full Standings
Ed Maunder still holding on to GHT Money List Full Standings
The GHT would like to Thank Sandy White and the staff at Lowville Golf Club for their hospitality throughout the day. The next event on the GHT Schedule is set to go Monday June 9 at King's Forest Golf Club in Hamilton ON.
