  • Greg Moody: Golf's Mr. Everything

    The Pacific Coast Amateur is easily one of the most illustrious championships in amateur golf.

    For proof, one need only glance at results from the 2015 edition, held at the Eugene Country Club.

    That year, current PGA TOUR player Aaron Wise topped the leaderboard, trailed in order by Beau Hossler, Maverick McNealy, Bryson DeChambeau and Will Zalatoris, with Scottie Scheffler and Collin Morikawa further down the list. Big names all, now on the pro circuit.

    And that wasn’t a one-off.

    Every year the leaderboard is sprinkled with big names. In 2016 and 2017, Wise was followed as winner by Zalatoris and Doug Ghim, yet another pro in waiting.

    This year’s Pacific Coast Amateur will be held July 25-28, at Capilano Golf and Country Club in West Vancouver, and you’d expect Championship Chair Greg Moody to be stoked.
