10 Year Journey to PGA Scramble Ends with Victory for Shuswap National Team
The team posted a 166.4 total and held off gusts up to 70 km/h at the BMW National Final, officials said.
After 10 years of qualifying attempts, Shuswap National won the PGA Scramble at Cabot Cape Breton, Canada, in Oct., completing a long-sought championship victory.
Comprised of Luke Ghostkeeper, Rob Shanks, Marlena Anderson, Zac Scott, and PGA professional Dave Munn, the team relied on a consistent game plan to secure the title.
Gusts of up to 70 km/h at Cabot Cliffs tested the team during the second round, where they posted a 63 gross score and 166.4 tournament total.
Highlights included an eagle on the 15th hole and Anderson's driving performance; "While winning the trophy is something else," Ghostkeeper added, the experience was a win for the team.
Presented by the BMW National Final, the championship concluded at Cabot Cliffs, validating the team's persistence after their decade-long effort to qualify together.
