PGA Canada golf makes its second stop in the region this week at Ambassador Golf Club for the first time in four years.
Davis Shore, who won last week’s Osprey Valley Open in Toronto said he hopes to build on the success that other Tennesseeans have had in Windsor, with Brentwood, Tennessee’s Dawson Armstrong hoisting the Windsor Championship trophy the last time the tournament was contested in 2019.
“This is my first time in Windsor, but it seems like a really cool place,” said Shore “The course is in great condition. It’s just about perfect. The fairways are great and the greens are rolling really, really pure. So it should be a fun week.”
Windsor Championship Tournament Director Adam Wagner said the return of PGA Tour Canada to the City of Windsor was highly anticipated and has stirred up excitement around the city from both players and fans alike.
“The tour keeps coming back. They love the golf course. They love the structure that we have. They love the city,” said Wagner.
During the last two playings of the Windsor Championship in 2018 and 2019, both held at Ambassador Golf Club, the tournament raised more than $215,000 for local charities in the Windsor and Essex County area.
