In the Overall Championship, it took a birdie on the 2nd extra hole for PGA TOUR Canada Pro Kevin Stinson of Mission, BC to win outright over Chilliwack Golf Club Pro Brad Clapp. Both professionals shot scores of 66 (-6) on the day to oust VGT’s largest ‘Open’ field in its 7 year history (112 players).
