weekend). “I told him the last time I played there was when I won the B.C. Junior. [Actually] I played at Capilano with a couple of buddies maybe 20 years ago but I haven’t played there since.
And he hasn’t played at Seymour since the high school tournament.
“Coming from Victoria where the golf courses were a little bit easier, going to Seymour was a tough golf course. I think Capilano reminded me a lot of Royal Colwood [in Victoria].
“It’s remarkable that we played at those two golf courses as high profile as they are. It was the first time I’d played them.”
Despite the few times he’s been to Capilano, he recalls it pretty well.
“Some courses just jog your memory bet-ter than others,” he explains. “The reason Capilano comes to mind is just because it reminds me so much of hilly Colwood. I remember virtually all of it, maybe with the exception of a couple of holes in the middle of the front nine.
“I guess the prettiest hole would probably be the first because you can see the whole city from the first tee.
“I do remember the finish there which is a
very good finish: 13 is a dogleg right, par 4 up the hill for the second shot; 14 is across the driveway that comes into the club, then we go over to 15.
“I think 16, 17 and 18 are very good holes. I remember 16 being a long par 3, I think 17 was a reasonably long par 4 and 18 was a great par 5 straight up the hill… 18 is a beau-tiful hole.”
Nice golf course. Nice career. Nice memories.
This is episode 437 from Len Corben’s trea-sure chest of stories – the great events and the quirky – that bring to life the North Shore’s rich sports history.
