he Royal Canadian Golf Association made several announcements Monday about enhancements to Canada’s only PGA Tour stop, to be played this year at Glen Abbey Golf Club in Oakville, Ont., July 24-27.

Among them is an attempt to make the week of our Open a festival of Canadian golf.

It will kick off by moving the Score Awards — a variety of categories in Canadian golf — from May to Monday night of Open week. And on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings after golf is complete, concerts featuring Blue Rodeo, 54/40 and Tom Cochrane will take place in the amphitheatre built in the spectator village at Glen Abbey.

RCGA CEO and executive director Scott Simmons and RBC Canadian Open tournament director Bill Paul also said they are pulling out all the stops to cater to players and their families, with the hope of attracting a better field. That includes again chartering a jet to fly players from England to Toronto after play concludes Sunday night at the British Open.

Simmons and Open organizers, including representatives from RBC, the new title sponsor that signed on last November, met with PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem and his team earlier this month to lay out the new five-year vision for improving our Open. Simmons said they were received enthusiastically.

Paul said Monday he has commitments from several players to play our Open, including from Jim Furyk, who will go for a three-peat.

Among the others who have signed to play are Sean O’Hair, Retief Goosen, Fred Couples, 2005 champ Mark Calcavecchia and Canadians Mike Weir and Stephen Ames.

Simmons said the RCGA continues to make its case to the PGA Tour about improving the date (it’s unlikely to change in the next four years), but there’s a hint of a new strategy here — no more whining.

“This date has its challenges following the British Open, but there are also a number of benefits,” Simmons said. “Being after the FedEx Cup playoffs is not preferable. We’re happy we’re in July, in the summer, with great weather. There are better dates, yes, but what we really have to do is to do everything in our power to attract players, corporate Canada and spectators, and if we take care of all those, we’ll be happy.

“We think if we take care of our event, the rest will take care of itself. We’d like to (be considered) for other dates, but that decision is made in consultation with the Tour. We’re not waiting for a date change to make our event great.”

Golf has a new presence and a new selection method on the national stage with the sport’s addition to the 2009 Canada Games in P.E.I.

All 10 provinces have adopted an advance-preparation model for the competition, and in Manitoba, the process began earlier this spring with the selection of 16 players between the ages of 15 and 17. All must be 18 or younger when the games begin.

Rather than just appointing the three boys’ and three girls’ entries a week or two before the Games, or using next summer’s provincial junior as the measuring stick, Golf Manitoba has chosen to begin training squads for both boys and girls.

Chosen for the first phase are:

Adrian Kibsey (Southwood), Burke Wiebe (Southwood), Lyle MacKenzie (Southwood), Jeff Bassey (St. Charles), Myles Sullivan (Portage), Steve Minion (Breezy Bend), Alex Crawford (Breezy Bend) and Ryan Pitzel (Rossmere) on the boys’ side.

Jessie Choi (Public Players), Ashley Fredette (Niakwa), Kayla Ketcheson (Larters), Nicole McGlenen (St. Charles), Alyssa Moon (Portage), Jenna Roadley (Glendale), Lindsay Stewart (Selkirk) and Bri-Ann Tokariwski (Selkirk) on the girls’ side.

The squads have already begun training activities, including mental game, fitness, diet, skill development and on-course play. An evaluation will take place near the end of summer, when additions or subtractions to the squads may be made.

“From our standpoint, this is extremely exciting to be able to work for 18 months with 16 young players to train them,” said Golf Manitoba executive director Dave Comaskey.

The intense process will continue through next season, when it’s expected that a variety of on-course competitions will ultimately determine the province’s representatives in P.E.I.

A unique opportunity awaits eager players next weekend at Fast Golf on the west Perimeter Highway.

A major demo day is scheduled for Saturday between 1 and 4 p.m. at the range and three-hole golf course. It will include Titleist, Cobra, Callaway, Taylor Made, Srixon, Ping and Jazz in an assembly of most of the major equipment manufacturers.

It’s an ideal chance to try out that driver or the irons you’ve had your eye on, and better, to compare them to what’s out there in new technology.

    Ontario is moving to reduce exposure to toxic chemicals by banning the
sale and cosmetic use of pesticides.
Legislation to be introduced today would make Ontario's pesticide rules
among the toughest in North America. It would also replace a variety of
municipal by-laws in place across the province.
Studies by public health experts are showing growing evidence of the
potential health risk of pesticides, particularly for children.
The ban would likely take effect next spring. It wouldn't affect
pesticides used for farming or forestry. Golf courses would still be able to
use pesticides, but must meet certain conditions to minimize environmental
impacts. Pesticides would still be used for health and safety, such as
controlling mosquitoes, which can carry diseases like West Nile Virus.

QUOTES

"Our generation is becoming more and more aware of the potential risks in
our environment, not only to our health, but to our children's health. That's
why we're taking action on behalf of the next generation of Ontarians, and
reducing their exposure to chemicals," said Premier Dalton McGuinty.

"Many municipalities have already shown leadership in banning or
restricting cosmetic-use pesticides. We're extending that protection to all
families wherever they live," said Environment Minister John Gerretsen.

QUICK FACTS

<<
-   Over 44 per cent of Ontarians already live in a municipality where
the cosmetic use of pesticides is banned.

-   Groups such as the Ontario College of Family Physicians and the
Canadian Cancer Society have been calling for a ban on the cosmetic
use of pesticides as a prudent measure to protect our families'
health.

Those who lament the low number of Canadians playing on the LPGA Tour might want to keep an eye on Oakville’s Jessica Shepley, who was runner-up at the Mercedes-Benz of Kansas City Championship on the Duramed Futures Tour a week ago.

They should also keep tabs on 17-year-old Sue Kim, who won a playoff last week to take the first leg of this year’s CN Canadian Women’s Tour. The amateur from Langley, B.C., earns a ticket into this year’s CN Canadian Women’s Open in Ottawa, but Shepley, 25, is closer to full-time play on tour.

The former Ontario Amateur champion shot a 70 in the final round at the Kansas City event to finish four shots off the lead, but her second- place finish launched Shepley up the money list from 46th to 11th place.

If the season were to end today, the former University of Tennessee standout would have a direct ticket into the final stage of LPGA qualifying school. The top five on the Futures Tour money list earn their LPGA Tour cards for 2009, so that is a carrot dangling in front of Shepley.

“We’re only a third of the way through the season, so at this point, I’m not even thinking about the end of the season,” Shepley said. “That’s one of my biggest goals is to stay in the present. Thinking about the final part of it right now is probably one of the silliest things that I or any player can do.

“Hopefully, my name is still up there, but that’s not my main focus,” said Shepley, who started the season with a tie for sixth in Lakeland, Fla.

Her other top-20 finish of the season came at the beginning of May in El Paso, Tex., so things are looking up after she finished 48th on the 2007 Futures Tour money list

At the Lakeland event, a second-round 78 was sandwiched by scores of 68 and 69. At El Paso, the damage was done by an opening round of 77 that was offset by a 67 and 71. In Kansas City, she stayed relatively consistent, following a 74 with a pair of 70s.

“I think the first thing is you start seeing yourself shooting those low scores and then putting them together,” she said.

“I haven’t had the best couple of years and I think now that I’m starting to shoot those scores again, it’s really helping my confidence.

“I just have to figure out how to keep those bad rounds down to a 72, 73, 74 instead of letting them creep up into the high 70s.”

Shepley said she did some soul-searching over the winter.

“I just sat back and tried to figure out what was important to me and what I wanted and what I needed to do and what I’d been not doing or doing incorrectly,” she said.

“I guess getting my college years and some of that stuff behind me and deciding that I wanted to do more things with my life, I was going to have to change some of the things I was doing in order to make improvements. That was a big part of the winter.”

That inward look may make the summer even more enjoyable.

THE SHORT GAME

We will get a look at where the Royal Canadian Golf Association is headed this week when the RCGA unveils its long-awaited strategic plan. The plan has been a focus for executive director Scott Simmons since he took office almost a year ago. A draft document was tabled at the RCGA’s annual general meeting earlier this year and the final document is expected to concentrate on junior golf, player development, revenue sources and the RCGA’s own internal structure … The FBR Open in Scottsdale, Ariz., is party central when that PGA Tour event is held early each season and is renowned for its beer tents, bars and loud galleries. While the FBR tends to go over the top at times, the RBC Canadian Open is expected to announce today that it will introduce a toned-down version to add a more festive flair to the tournament. Concerts and community involvement are expected to take the Open beyond golf. Some name players also are expected to be announced for this year’s field at Glen Abbey. There is also a possibility that St. George’s could be named the site of the 2010 Open … The Winnipeg stop on the Canadian Tour has been rebranded as The Players Cup, with a purse of $200,000 and an exemption into the Canadian Open available … The LPGA and Nationwide tours will be represented when Hamilton’s Alena Sharp and Brantford’s David Hearn lead a clinic for at-risk youth in Peel Region prior to the RBC Insurance Charity Golf Classic at Milton’s Rattlesnake Point today. With proceeds going to the Peel Children’s Aid Foundation, Olympians such as freestyle skier Jeff Bean and women’s hockey team members Jennifer Botterill, Jayna Hefford, Becky Kellar and Cheryl Pounder also will be on hand.

Patrick Kelley Earns Academic All-District Honor

IPFW junior golfer Patrick Kelley has been named to the ESPN The Magazine/College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSida) At-Large Academic All-District 5 First Team. With his first-team All-District selection, Kelley is now eligible for the Academic All-America team.

Kelley, a member of the men’s golf team, played in 24 rounds during the year, averaging a team-best 75.0 strokes per round, with a low round of 70 on the season; which he did twice. He was named the Summit League Golfer of the Week for the week ending April 16, following his rounds at Loyola’s Caputo Invitational. He also shot a three-round total of 214 (one over par) at the IPFW Invitational, carding rounds of 74 (+3), 70 (-1) and 70 (-1). The junior is the first non-senior at IPFW to earn an Academic All-District honor, and has a perfect 4.0 grade point average in accounting.

He is the sixth IPFW student-athlete over the last four years to earn Academic All-District honors, as each of the previous six earned first-team nods. David Simon (2004-05/Men’s Basketball), Beth Miller (2005-06/At-Large), Lindsay Williamson (2005-06/Women’s Soccer), Colin Lundeen (2006-07/At-Large) and Claire Jackson (2006-07/Women’s Volleyball) all proceeded Kelley with the honor with Lundeen and Jackson following their All-District honors by being named to the Second Team Academic All-America squad.

The at-large teams consist of athletes from fencing, golf, gymnastics, ice hockey, lacrosse, rifle, skiing, swimming & diving, tennis, men’s volleyball, water polo and wrestling. District 5 is made up of schools within the states of Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Canadian provinces of Ontario and Manitoba.

To be nominated, the student-athlete must be a starter or important reserve with at least a 3.20 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) for his career. No athlete is eligible until he has reached sophomore athletic and academic standing at his current institution.

It’s not alone in begging Mother Nature to get with the weather program, but newly opened Granite Hills Golf Club stands to be among the biggest beneficiaries when she gets around to it.

(Two nice days in a row do not constitute “getting with the program.”)

Manitoba’s newest addition to the course roster, situated on the shores of Lac du Bonnet about 19 kilometres northeast of town, is plenty playable in its first spring.

It opened late last summer for a short run with excellent greens, ample grass on the fairways, views and terrain uncommon to the province and a difficulty factor that will certainly dress down the province’s best players.

Its newness, though, requires some extra special treatment from a good growing season.

Based on what we saw during a playing visit earlier this week, proper warmth and moisture this season are going to do Granite Hills a world of good, with the potential to take the course to a far more mature state than anyone would expect in a new layout.

The course has been open barely two weeks, delayed by April’s annoying snowstorms that blasted the region and down into the Whiteshell.

The winter didn’t take away any teeth.

Golf Manitoba has visited and rated the course and to the best of our knowledge, there is no track in the province more difficult than Granite Hills’ 75.2 course rating from the black (7,082 yards) tees. The rating is an assessment of what a scratch player would shoot from that set of tees.

From the white (6,088) markers, the rating is 70.4 for men and a nasty 76.1 for women.

Let’s just say that a five-shot difference for the men from black to white (blue is in between at 6,642 yards) is conservatively estimated.

In our sneak peak at the course last July, two weeks before its Aug. 11 opening, we implored you to “…above all, don’t forget a moment of appreciation for the patient folks who persevered to bring it to you.”

During our visit this week, there were a few four-letter words mixed into the appreciation, but rest assured, Granite Hills is everything it’s billed to be.

And more, especially if you don’t play the appropriate set of tees.

To review, it’s a smart layout, steering around the abundant granite outcroppings of the Canadian Shield and along the shores of Lac du Bonnet and the Lee River.

The third hole, a par-5 along the lake to the left, is a brutal assignment early in your round. There isn’t a breather among the course’s par-3s.

The finishing holes, from the 13th on, test your skill, patience and discipline — and by that we mean the ability to keep your head and mind still while the rock intimidates, the lake’s waves and breezes beckon, and several narrow fairways and risk-reward shots distract your thinking.

At the start of its first full season, Granite Hills has already done well on the word-of-mouth reviews among Manitoba’s golfers.

Its owners have set a lofty standard and have delivered the course they said they would. Now they have additional, immediate goals to make the experience better.

“We want to get everything in place so when guests come out, we can give them full service,” ownership partner Norm Labossiere said this week. “That means getting the clubhouse up and running (it is already), our tournament building done and whatever other cosmetic things that have to be done, done.”

The tournament hall is expected to be complete within the week, allowing Granite Hills the ability to host larger outings.

“There’s also the matter of taking care of the dead fall and we’ll be working on that every day this season,” Labossiere said.

Not only has the course’s crew been working hard to clean out the underbrush in numerous strategic locations, it’s still dealing with the effects of a storm last summer that knocked down at least 300 trees.

One of the best assessments to this point comes from Golf Manitoba executive director Dave Comaskey, who said this week that Granite Hills “is absolutely a championship golf course,” and added that it’s not out of the question the course could play host to a provincial event as early as next
