Victor Ciesielski Wins The GLT Spring Open At Woodington Lake GC

PictureVic Ciesielski GLT Spring Open Champion
Tottenham ON - The Great Lakes Tour's first 36-hole championship of the season wrapped up yesterday at Woodington Lake GC Legacy Course for the GLT Spring Open.  This was also the first of six events in the newly formed Ontario Open Qualifying Series.

With a very wet spring thus far in Ontario, the conditions of Woodington Lake GC were like most other golf courses in the GTA that are dealing with wet turf conditions. PGA of Canada Professional Ryan Lamb and the professional staff gave the players a world class welcome from start to finish while Superintendent Delky Dozzi and his staff worked hard to have the 7500 yard layout meet tournament conditions and offer the field a great test of golf.   For the GLT Spring Open, GLT officials played a scorecard of 7094 yards, which proved to be a fair yet demanding set-up for the event.

Hamilton ON - The Great Lakes Tour (GLT) has confirmed that a new event is coming to Niagara National Golf & Country in Stevensville ON, only 10 minutes from the historic attraction and City of Niagara Falls.

The GLT Niagara Open will be contested on July 7-8, 2022 as a 36-hole, stroke-play competition open to all professionals and elite level amateur golfers.

Port Dover ON - ​ Sebastian Szirmak of Toronto ON wins the rain shortened Southern Ontario Open at Port Dover Golf Club in Port Dover ON by 1 shot over Austin Ryan of Waterloo ON.

This was the 9th playing of the Southern Ontario Open and each edition produced a different winner until this year. After the unfortunate decision to cancel the final round due to unplayable course conditions caused by heavy rainfall overnight. Szirmak became the first two-time winner of the Championship.  His previous victory was in 2018.

Szirmak got in the clubhouse after 36 holes with rounds of 64-66 to post 12 under par on the par 71 layout and take the clubhouse lead. While Austin Ryan made a 15 foot birdie putt on his 36th hole to post rounds of 67-64. 

Amateur Cam Kellett of London ON continued his strong play recently when he opened the Championship with a tidy 64 on a very windy day. He would follow it up with a hard fought 68 to post 10 under par. Sitting tied with Kellett after 36 holes was veteran tour professional Derek Gillespie of Oshawa ON who was paired with Szirmak Thursday and Friday. Gillespie's 2nd round 63 was tied for low round of the day.

By: Garry McKay

Hamilton ON - As the Great Lakes Tour enters its 20th season it continues to grow and evolve.

One thing that will never change, however, is the Tour’s fundamental philosophy, which is to help aspiring professionals and amateurs develop their game and to get ready for the next level. That’s the shared philosophy of co-owners Jim Kenesky and Colin Murray.

Current PGA Tour player Michael Gligic of Burlington, Ontario, turned pro while he was still a teenager and had played practically no high-level amateur golf.
​
He personifies what the Great Lakes Tour is all about.
