Back to back 67′s has Doug Morgan of the Redwoods in first place with a comfortable three shot lead heading into the final round of the BCPGA Championship at the Arnold Palmer designed Whistler Golf Club. Morgan has a three shot lead over Brynn Parry of Seymour Creek who bounced back with the low round of the tournament with a 5 under par score of 66.

Morgan’s second round included 6 birdies and two bogies, while his first round included an amazing eagle two at the 460 yard par 4 16th.  Parry’s round also included 6 birdies along with a lone bogie at the difficult par 3 8th.

“Conditions were difficult today” said Alan Kristmanson, Director of Golf at the Whistler Golf Club. ” Overnight rain softened the course a little but the greens were still extremely quick and you had to ensure you kept the ball below the hole. The leaders played some great golf today in difficult wind and rain. The pins will be a little tougher tomorrow so it should be an exciting finish.”

A perfect day for golf greeted BC’s top professionals at the Whistler Golf Club, the host of the 2010 BCPGA Championship. “The course is playing perfectly” one pro said. “The greens are firm and fast, just the way we like them. Good shots are rewarded and bad shots, well you pay the price.’

Three rounds of 67 were shot in the morning wave before the winds came up and firmed up the greens, Defending Champ Doug Morgan of The Redwoods fired an impressive 32 on the back nine , the tougher of the two nines at the Whistler Golf Club. Joining Morgan at 67 were former Whistler local and Arbutus Ridge Professional Eddie Boudreau.  Ju Young Hyun of Musqueam carded the final 67 in the morning.

Tuesdays tee time begin at 7:30.  Final round tee times start Wednesday at 7:30. The public is encouraged to come watch some great golf free of charge.
