It was a wire-to-wire win for North Vancouver's James Legault and Steven Lecuyer at the 2025 2025 G&G Brands/Callaway Golf Pro-Assistant Golf Championship at The Rise Resort in Vernon.
The 36-hole tournament was played Monday and Tuesday, July 7 and 8.
The pair from the Seymour Creek Golf Centre took the lead following Round One after their spectacular 58 (-14) in the two-pro best-ball format. Having never played the course and arriving on a flight that morning, Lecuyer shot 59 (-13) on his own ball, a stunning achievement that marked the first time an individual association member shot 59 in a PGA of BC event.
The duo took a three-stroke lead into the final round over Oliver's Fairview Mountain Golf Club香蕉视频直播檚 Brian McDonald and Rob Tadey, who also enjoyed an incredible best-ball performance, firing an 11-under 61 in Round One. The McDonald/Tadey combo was looking for a fourth Pro-Assistant title.
Round Two was contested as a two-pro scramble. Legault and Lecuyer maintained their momentum from the day before, opening their second round with four straight birdies.
Playing in the final group alongside Legault and Lecuyer, McDonald and Tadey matched their competitors with four opening birdies of their own. By the turn, Fairview Mountain had cut the deficit to just two shots, but on the 11th and 12th holes, Seymour Creek bolstered their lead with back-to-back eagles to go four strokes up with six holes to play.
While Fairview Mountain added three more birdies across the final six holes, Seymour Creek birdied 17 and 18 to seal a three-shot victory.
With a 14-under 58 in best-ball and a 12-under 60 in the scramble, Seymour Creek香蕉视频直播檚 26-under set the record for best Pro-Assistant total of all time.
