In one of the worst kept secrets in golf, the RCGA and ClubLink announced today that Glen Abbey will get the 2008 Canadian Open. I’ve written about this a lot and it’ll be intriguing to see who shows up in 2008, especially after the tournament goes through Angus Glen North and Glen Abbey, two courses that aren’t widely liked by the players
However, I do like the Abbey and think it is the best venue for fans and reporters. However, perhaps not so much for PGA Tour pros. This is what Stephen Ross, head blue blazer at the RCGA, had to say:
“We are delighted to return the Canadian Open to the legendary Glen Abbey, one of the most spectator-friendly golf courses in the world. Our national championship is steeped in tradition and Glen Abbey has been the stage for many memorable moments in Canadian Open lore.” said Stephen Ross, RCGA Executive Director.
I see there’s no mention of Terrebonne, the Quebec Tom Fazio course that is delayed but was supposed to hold the event….
