With "a few good putts," real estate agent Scott Kral of Cowichan used a 5-under par 67 as his opening offer to claim the 108th edition of the British Columbia Amateur Championship which began Monday at Duncan Meadows Golf & Country Club on Vancouver Island.
“I was hitting it pretty good today,” said Kral, the former BC Junior champion (1995-96)."I made a few good putts and it worked for me.”
A former BC Willingdon Cup team member who spent a few lean years on the Canadian Tour after graduating from the University of Washington, Kral was flawlessly crafting his way around Duncan Meadows, collecting six birdies along the way until he bogeyed he 18th hole.
Defending champion Eugene Wong of North Vancouver, newly-crowned B.C. Junior Boys’ champion Riley Wheeldon of Comox, Kyle Sobczak of Invermere along with Brent Wilson and Cory Renfrew of Victoria are bunched together in second place at 3-under par 69.
Burnaby's Alexander Michalowski, Jarred Callbeck of Victoria and Brett Stewart of Abbotsford, share seventh place at 2-under par 70.
In the BC Amateu Zone competition Zone 5 team members, Bryan Toth of Gorge Vale Golf Club, Craig Doell of Victoria Golf Club, Cowichan's Kral and Ben Griffin of Uplands Golf Club hold the lead at 5-under 211.
The Hamber Club Team Championship and Zone Team Championship are held concurrently with the first and second rounds of the B.C. Amateur.
