Stouffville native loses heartbreaker on Canadian women’s golf tour
Finishing two rounds of regulation play in a three-way tie with a one-under par 143, Sadekar, Kira Meixner of Richmond, B.C. and Sherlock went into a playoff at Glendale Golf and Country Club in Winnipeg.
But after Meixner stumbled on the first playoff hole by carding a double bogey, Sadekar and Sherlock battled to the fourth and final playoff hole.
On the 475-yard, par-five fourth hole, Sherlock reached the green in two shots and birdied the hole to win the title.
Firing rounds of 70 and 73 in regulation play, Sadekar, 23, did not go home empty-handed as her share of the purse was $6,875.
But, Sadekar isn’t in it solely for the money.
“I come to each of these events to win,” she said.
With this week’s result, Sadekar moves closer to an exemption into the CN Canadian Women’s Open, as the top two CN Canadian Women’s Tour order of merit finishers will receive an exemption.
