Indeed!
A native of Listowel, Ontario - small town about two hours nw of Toronto not too far from the shores of Lake Huron. The folks there must really be celebrating; seems like a good and friendly community. I played a very modest & homely course there a few times while on short vacations, and it's where Corey started off his playing days and won some junior tournaments; they are clearly very proud of the local boy making good. It's hard for me to imagine the journey from there to being a PGA Tour winner, but good things were expected of/for him for several years now. Congrats, Corey!

I didn't watch the event, but did see his pre-round interview.  I was struck by how calm he seemed.

 8)  Tommy,


The only thing better would be for Conners to stride onto The Masters's stage and,.... with that beautiful swing tempo of his... win it going away!

He’s had a second and a T3 this year — the fact that he had to Monday in is nuts.

I know it is kind of lame but I thought his wife's reactions were really cool to watch - she couldn't believe it when he kept on making the putts he needed to win.  Shows what life is like for the wife of a guy who has to Monday qualify to get into tournaments and then the amazement and disbelief when he wins - it shows how tough life is for guys in golf who have no contract unlike other sports.
