The top two ranked senior men’s amateur golfers in the province triumphed Thursday at Brampton Golf Club, capturing the Ontario Senior Men’s Better Ball Championship.
The duo of Dave Bunker (Cherry Hill Club) and Rob Cowan (Westmount Golf and Country Club) emerged victorious after defeating Dan Keogh (Toronto Golf Club) and Nigel Hollidge (Taboo Resort) in a one-hole playoff. Both teams carded a better-ball score of 5-under-par 66 on the day.
Last year’s champions, Bruno Ardito (Brampton Golf Club) and Gary Parker (Brampton Golf Club), secured third place.
A total of 55 teams (110 players) participated in the one-day event. Established in 1982, the Ontario Senior Men’s Better Ball Championship is open to players aged 55 and older as of the tournament date.
This victory marks the second provincial championship win this year for Bunker, following his triumph in the Ontario Senior Men’s Championship earlier this summer. He also claimed the Senior Porter Cup this season. Cowan recently finished in the top 15 at the Canadian Senior Men’s Championship and top 10 at the Ontario Senior Men’s Championship.
