Conners earns spot for Canadian Olympic golf
Canadian Corey Conners has secured his spot on the Olympic golf team after a strong performance at the RBC Canadian Open. Conners finished tied for fifth at the event, which was enough to move him into the top-15 in the world rankings and earn him an automatic berth on the Olympic team.
Conners’ performance is a major boost for the Canadian Olympic team, which is looking to improve on its performance from the 2016 Rio Games, where Graham DeLaet finished tied for 32nd. Conners is one of the most promising young golfers in the world, and he is expected to be a contender for a medal in Tokyo.
