Elmira's Garrett Rank has put his name at the top of the list when it comes to the best golfers in the amateur ranks in Ontario.
Golf Ontario recognized athletes for 2019 accomplishments with Rank topping the list.
He leads the Order of Merit ranking for both the Men’s Mid-Amateur and Amateur divisions.
The 31-year old NHL referee has been the Men’s Amateur leader in Order of Merit ranking for the past 4 seasons.
He won the 117th Western Amateur Golf Tournament, the first Canadian to do so since Vancouver’s Jim Nelford in 1977.
“I’m looking forward to the Korn Ferry Tour start (an exemption from winning Western Am) and hopefully testing myself at the highest levels,” said Rank in a release from Golf Ontario.
He also sent out a thank-you to all of his supporters at Westmount GC, Elmira GC, the University of Waterloo, Dave Smallwood, James Skrypec, Dr. Rich Ennis, Drew Symons, Derek Ingram, Golf Canada and Golf Ontario.
