Coré finishes eighth at Canadian golf championship

Hamilton, Ont. -- McGill's Melissa Coré of Beaconsfield, Que., shot a 10-over par 82 on Friday to finish eighth overall at the Canadian collegiate golf championship at King’s Forest Golf Course, in Hamilton, Ont.

 

A 22-year-old graduate student in first-year management, Coré ended up with a 19-over 235. The championship round  was shortened to 54 holes after heavy rainfall on Thursday rendered the course unplayable to force the cancellation of the third round.

 

 

Humber College’s Maggie Trainor of Dundas, Ont. broke UBC ’s dominance to capture the women’s individual title.  Trainor finished with a three-day total of 78-71-78--227 (+11).  Two strokes back was UBC’s Kyla Inaba of Kelowna, B.C.  The University of Toronto’s Danielle Greene and UBC’s Marianne Banton tied for third at 16-over.

 

The UBC Thunderbirds captured both the respective men’s and women’s team titles.

 

UBC continued to dominate the women’s competition earning their sixth title in seven years. Their only loss in the championship’s history came in 2008 after being spoiled by their rivals from Victoria.

 

“It was a great feeling winning today,” said UBC senior Kyla Inaba. “Especially since we were coming back from our close second last year and then to win it like we did was really great.”

 

Inaba and her teammates Lindsay Manion, Marianne Banton, Jocelyn Alford and Alyssa Human were the picture of consistency at this week’s championship and finished the final day with a score of 19-over and three-day team total of 921 (+57) for an impressive 25-shot victory.

UVic took home runner-up honours after shooting a total score of 946 (+82) for the tournament.  Rounding out the top-three was Humber College with a score of 996 (+132).

 

On the men’s side, UBC captured their second consecutive team title with a total of 300-282-292—874 (+10).  Université Laval came in second with a team score of 300-301-302--903 (+39) while Victoria and Humber tied for third at 906 (+42).

 

UBC’s victory was especially sweet for Cory Renfrew of Victoria, B.C., as he claimed the men’s individual title with his score of 73 on the day, for a total score of 74-66-73—213 (-3).

 

“It feels great to win, but it’s even better that the team won,” said Renfrew. “We came here viewing this as a whole other start.  We focused on what we could control this week and wanted to win as a team.”

 

Three players finished tied for runner-up - Laval’s Mathieu Gringras, McMaster ’s Matt Jacobs and UBC’s Andrew Robb - with a score of 3-over 219.

 

Both the male and female individual champions earned an exemption into the 2009 Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship at Club de golf Le Blainvillier in Blainville, Que., and the 2009 Royale Cup Canadian Women’s Amateur Championship held at Royal Oaks Golf Links in Moncton, N.B., respectively.
