Nick Taylor Makes Canadian History w/ Mike Weir, Brad Fritsch & Lorne Rubenstein

Nick Taylor is the Canadian Open champion and Ben Ennis is basking in all the glory. He kicks off the show with long-time Canadian golf writer, and 16-time author Lorne Rubenstein as they go over what they saw over the weekend. How impressive was his performance from Friday to Sunday? And where does Lorne rank this moment in all his Canadian sports memories? Up next, Ben is joined by Blake Murphy, as they go over the Raptors’ hire of Darko Rajakovic and Fred Van Vleet opting out of his contract. Ben is also joined by 2003 Masters champion Mike Weir! He talks about his time with Nick yesterday on the green and the emotions he felt watching a fellow Canadian win in Canada. Mike also shares how he feels about the guys going into the US Open this year. Ben is then joined by another former PGA player Brad Fritsch, and they go over his thoughts about Nick Taylor winning the Canadian Open. How much pressure does Nick feel at that moment? And what was Brad feeling as Adam lifted the trophy? We then hear from Kevin Blue the Chief Sport Officer of Golf Canada about what this mean will win for Golf in Canada, and how Canadian golf has been able to get to this result. Finally, Ben closes out the show with the host of Blair and Barker, Kevin Barker! They go over his experience at the Canadian Open and recap the Blue Jays' win over the Twins and what we can expect to see this week against the Orioles.
