Holmes stellar 63 gives him first-round lead at Bear Mountain

Posted on August 10, 2020

Evan Holmes started the Canada Life Series at Bear Mountain: Mountain Course event in style, making birdie on his first three holes and on four of his first five. Even a bogey at No. 6 only slowed him temporarily as Holmes went on to birdie two more (Nos. 7 and 8) to make the turn in 30 strokes. Holmes was steady as can be on the back nine, adding three more birdies to lift him to an 8-under 63 and a sizable three-shot lead on Lawren Rowe at the inaugural Canada Life Series tournament. Chris Crisologo and Drew Nesbitt are four shots back.
