Update
The qualifiers were Todd Barranger (64) from South Carolina, Jeff Coston (64) Washington State,
Kent Fukushima (65) Alberta, and Michael Coombs and Jacob Rohde (66's) Michael to win on the first playoff hole. Michael also from
Washington State.
The Celebrity Pro Am consisted of four amateurs, one local celebrity and one tour pro.
From my perspective the crowds seemed a little thinner than previous years
but the enthusiasm level and excitement that the A.C.C. was here once again
was definitely in the air.
The weather was anything but un-cooperative, people please remember your sun block, you will
fry this week. And what goes better on a hot day but an ice cold beer that is actually
cheaper than last year! That's right the beer prices were reduced from $5 to a now $4.25 per can.
We have a few interested pics, John McKechie, and Eddy Shack to name a few. Enjoy the photos,
sorry for the limited amount today many more to come in the days ahead. The bottom photo,
Hole #16, Par 3 187 yards, a popular site to plant oneself, rest and take in the game.
We would like to here what kind of pics you want to see, especially during the tournament days. Send us
your Air Canada Championship comments or suggestions to viewer input.
