  • Coach Clay Stothers Has His UBC-Okanagan Heat Playing Hot

    By Brad Ziemer, British Columbia Golf

    The UBC-Okanagan men’s team didn’t just win the Canada West Golf Championships, they dominated the competition. The Heat capitalized on home-course advantage to post a team total of 24-under par and beat the field by 17 shots at Okanagan Golf Club’s Bear Course in Kelowna.

    Second-year player Ryan Gillis led the way, winning the individual title with a 36-hole score of nine-under par. UBC-Okanagan teammates Thomas Lemay and Andrew Rouble joined Gillis on the podium. Heat coach Clay Stothers was obviously delighted with the performance of the men’s team.

    “I couldn’t imagine us winning by 17 shots and having three players on our team coming first, second and third,” Stothers said. “It was a surreal, magical couple of days when everything kind of lined up nicely.”

  • Austin Krahn Survives Eight-Hole Playoff To Earn Team Canada Spot

    By Brad Ziemer, British Columbia Golf

    The significance of what he had accomplished was not lost on Austin Krahn after he survived a gruelling eight-hole playoff and won the Team Canada NextGen selection camp tourney in MacTier, Ont.

    The 17-year-old Christina Lake resident — the reigning B.C. Junior and B.C. Indigenous champion — is now officially a member of Team Canada.

    “It’s a huge honour to represent your country,” Krahn said in a telephone interview.

    “It is something I don’t take lightly. I want to represent them well. It’s not all about the golf, I understand, it’s a lot about how you act on the course and I want to show them that I am more than just a good golfer. I am a good person and I want to show that to the country. And of course it’s the highest level of golf in Canada and it’s an absolute privilege to be part of that.”
