Back-to-back wins by Canadians have added a bit of maple flavour to the top of the PGA Tour Americas points list.
Vancouver's Stuart Macdonald shot a 1-under 71 to finish 17-under overall for a two-stroke victory at the Diners Club Peru Open on Sunday and rocket up to third on the Fortinet Cup standings. He's 83 points back of No. 1 Matt Anderson of Hamilton, who won the 69th ECP Brazil Open on April 21.
"I don't think I really need to do too much differently," said Macdonald, who did not miss a cut on the PGA Tour Latinoamerica last season, which has since merged with PGA Tour Canada."I just need to continue to put in the work on the golf course, on the range, just keep on trying to get better." “Didn't play my best, but I kind of hung in there and hit some awesome shots coming down the stretch, which was great,” Anderson told reporters after Sunday's final round in Lima, Peru."I hit an awesome shot on 16 and I even gave myself a look on 17, which is a super tough par 3."
CHAMPIONS TOUR — Calgary's Stephen Ames will be back in action at the Insperity Invitational. He's atop the Schwab Cup standings after winning the Mitsubishi Electric Classic last week. He will be joined by No. 49 Mike Weir of Brights Grove, Ont., at The Woodlands Country Club in The Woodlands, Texas.
