Crystal Zamzow continued her season this past weekend (July 5-7) in Minnedosa at the Manitoba Women’s Golf Championships, finishing in the top three, which propels her for Team Manitoba for the Canadian Women’s Amateur Championship from July 30 to Aug. 2 at Royal Colwood Golf Club in Victoria, BC.
“I shot 74-74-80 for a +12 finish and good enough for third place,” said Zamzow. “I made a birdie on the 17th hole of the final round to have a stroke lead over the competitor in fourth, who was Cala Korman. It was probably the biggest putt and highlight of the weekend to maintain the top three in the tournament.”
Zamzow had been playing some good golf prior to the abrupt lightning delay that happened on Saturday. This led to the tournament carrying onto Sunday morning into the afternoon, which affected the many golfers having to play 27 holes in the same day. However, it didn’t seem to falter the Swan River product.
“My competitive spirit definitely comes out when it comes down to the wire,” said Zamzow. “I need to find that throughout a whole round going forward. My next tournament will be in Winnipeg for the Manitoba Junior Championship July 10-12 at Niakwa Golf and Country Club.”
