From The Editors August 13th, 2019

In this issue of British Columbia Golf's newsletter, we have the exciting news about the return of the CP Canadian Women's Open to Vancouver's prestigious Shaughnessy Golf & Country Club next year.

We also have a report on a young BC boy winning a U.S. Kids World Championship event, another BC lad, a few years older, winning his 6th PGA of Canada Seniors title and yet one other BC born gentleman reflecting back on his time as Captain of The Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews.

Of course we have Brad Ziemer's BC Golf notes with his weekly eye on what's happening involving golf and golfers around BC. Brad also has a couple of great stories on Vancouver's Stuart Macdonald and his time in China on the PGA Tour China circuit and local caddy Mike Darby getting back into the winner's circle on the PGA TOUR.

As always, if you have any thoughts or suggestions on topics you'd like to see appear going forward in your newsletter please send a message via the "Contact Us" button located on the top right of the BC Golf website home page.
