2016 LPGA, PGA- Brooke Henderson Graham De Laet, Ames and Others
Dedicating this thread this year to Graham De Laet for his support for the Flames. Stephen Ames, as a former Calgarian, also gets mention.
I suspect both will win this year on their respective tours.
SPEAKING OF WHICH.......
De Laet looking like he will be in the final pairing tomorrow. Really chunked it around today but has caught fire on the back nine. I have no idea how a guy can miss a 6 foot birdie putt yet then go and drain a 10 foot par save on the next hole. If he can keep that up he'll have a good shot at winning tomorrow.

he is in Vancouver according to an article I read somewhere. It said he and his wife split up as well.
In any event, De Laet with 2 3-Putts on his front nine and is 3 over through 9. He is still T-3 though with a large group at T-3. Way ahead of the field statistically on Greens in Regulation today, so if he gets his putter sorted out at the turn he can still turn this into a top 2 or 3 finish.

De Laet finishes with no birdies on the day. I'm not sure if it was his iron play that let him down or the putter, or both. He hit a number of fairways with good approach position but was not able to get it close.
When he did he missed the putts.
In any event he finishes T-5. HOWEVER, in an interesting twist, the player in 4th is an amateur, so De Laet will get money for T-4. That should be a $35K-$40K swing in his favour.

he tends to have his worst round on sundays, hope he can get past that as he is such a good ball striker and he should have won on tour already. great beard too.
I wonder if the Mods could put up a poll for this thread:
Next Canadian Golfer to win on their respective tour:
Stephen Ames - Champions
Rod Spittle - Champions
Brooke Henderson - LPGA
Alena Sharpe - LPGA
Grahan DeLaet - PGA
David Hearn - PGA
Nick Taylor - PGA
Adam Hadwin - PGA
Austin Connely - PGA
Mike Weir - PGA

Was at the Hoiston Golf Club yesterday for the final round. Was a lot of fun, was cheering hard for DaLaet. It was my first live golf experience and it was incredible seeing the pros play live, the talent level they have is insane.

He was pretty locked in, got a cap tip for yelling "Go Flames" though. Fowler and Spieth seemed to acknowledge the fans quite a bit, DJ was completely focused.
