Short Hitter Reavie is Long on Talent

Rookie Chez Reavie won the Canadian open by 3 shots over Billy Mayfair & pocketed a nice $900,000 check in the process. I have to be honest when saying I'd never heard of Reavie until this past weekend but I think we'll be hearing a lot from in over the next few years. The guy is not a long hitter but more than made up for it with his accuracy by hitting 54 of 72 fairways in regulation. His playing partner, Anthony Kim, never got in the groove and followed up his third round 64 with a 75 to end up tied for 8th. Reavie couldn't have looked cooler under what must have been tremendous pressure for a rookie looking for his first win. He hit some beautiful shots to hold his lead & never once looked anything but in total control. Perhaps more important than the awesome payday is the fact that he's now got his tour card locked up for the next 2 years and will be getting an invite to Augusta next spring.
