Ethier and Boudreau win team championship In the Team Championship, exclusively reserved for professional duos, it was the team of Angie Ethier and Ben Boudreau who, under the two-ball best ball formula , finished at the top of the standings with a 12-under par card . Their complicity and timing throughout the 18 holes allowed them to accumulate birdies and keep constant pressure on the rest of the field! "We really had a good dynamic on the field today," said Ben Boudreau. We started strong from the start, which gave us confidence quickly. When one had a more difficult hole, the other took over. We were able to manage our round well. » Angie Ethier added: "It was a super nice day. We played good golf, but above all we had a lot of fun supporting each other in every situation. The course was in exceptional condition – a big congratulations to the entire Vieux-Village team! » The duo thus established themselves as one of the tandems to watch on the summer circuit, demonstrating that with good communication and an effective strategy, it is possible to deliver a competitive and smooth performance. A remarkable collective performance on the Pro-am side In the Pro-am format , which brought together teams of two professionals and two amateurs under the formula of two best balls in the group, the victory went to the team made up of Jean-Marc Tourangeau, Réal Salvas, and amateurs Guy Sawyer and Dominic Boucher. Together, they shot a remarkable 21-under, thanks to excellent team cohesion and an ability to maximize low scoring opportunities on every hole. "We all contributed to this result," explained Jean-Marc Tourangeau. There was no pressure; Everyone played their game and we were able to capitalize when it mattered. This kind of formula is really nice because it rewards team spirit. » Réal Salvas added: "We made a few long putts, and everyone on the team had their highlights. The guys were on fire! » The quartet was able to combine seriousness, lightness and strategy to get ahead of a very competitive field, made up of many teams made up of seasoned pros and seasoned amateurs. Another ace for Adam Knight The day was also marked by a spectacular feat by Adam Knight, who made a hole-in-one on the 11th hole, a par-3 229 yards. This perfect shot, executed with calm and precision, was greeted with cheers from his group and once again underlines his exceptional talent. This is Adam's 10th hole-in-one – a remarkable milestone that deserves to be celebrated with admiration! |
