Round 2 - 2010 Canadian Men's Senior Championship

Led by three-time BC Senior Men's title-holder Gudmund Lindbjerg of Port Moody, Brian DeBiasio of Nelson, Real Gamache of Quesnel and Brock Waldron of Kelowna, the BC team combined for a two-round total 448 (226-222--448, +16) to capture the title.

"It feels great and we have a good team," said Team Captain Lindbjerg. "It's a two day competition where you have to just go out and do your best. Play hole-by-hole, these guys know how to do it. We're all good friends, so there's a good team chemistry."

Team Alberta, consisting of Frank Van Dornick of Camrose, Ron Kelly of Calgary, Floyd Kilgore of Grimshaw and Tom Skinner of Red Deer, entered the second round sitting in fifth place, but pulled into second with a strong final round finish for a two-day total 459 (236-223--459, +27).

Team Nova Scotia, with Ed Dumeah of Halifax, Bruce Fagan of Kentville, Graham MacIntyre of Windsor Junction and Gerry MacMillan of Kingston, finished third at 460. Finishing in third was Team Nova Scotia consisting of Ed Dumeah of Halifax, Bruce Fagan of Kentville, Graham MacIntyre of Windsor Junction and Gerry MacMillan of Kingston. The team total was 460. Each day, the best three of four scores counted toward the overall team total.

In the Men's Senior competition, Paul Simson of Raleigh, NC carded three birdies to maintain his lead by shooting an even par round 72 for a two-day total of 141 (-3).

"The conditions and the pins are tougher today, there's more wind and the greens are dry," said Simson.

"I made a couple mistakes, but other than that I'm fairly pleased with my round. I was very fortunate to make a bogey on 7, I hit my second shot over the green and it was not looking like we would find it. I had a lot of opportunities to make birdie but I didn't take advantage of them - 72 isn't bad though!"

In second place heading into Thursday's third round is Michael Mealia of Thornhill, Ont., who scored a 1-over par 72 for a 145 (+1) total while four time champion Graham Cooke of Hudson, Que., is tied in third place with Howard Broun of Calgary, Alt., both at 146 (+2).

There was a tie in the Super Senior competition that resulted in crowning of two players, Terry Townend of St-Lazare of Que., and Tom Liljeholm of Prineville, OR. Both finished with a two-day total of 159 (+15). In second was Phillip Leckey of Tampa, FL with 160 (+16).

Following Friday's final round the Canadian Men's Senior Champion will earn an exemption into the USGA Senior Championship at Lake Nona Golf & Country Club, October 2-7, in Orlando, FL.
