The team comprised of PGA of Canada professional Devon Schade and amateurs Ethan Hunter, Kayle Tosh, William Middleton and Tanner Chamberlin, who originally qualified from Larters at St. Andrews Golf & Country Club were dominant the past three days at Cabot Cape Breton, firing net -64.1 (gross rounds of 58-55-56) to win by 4.1 strokes over the team from Niagara National Golf Club at the RBC PGA Scramble National Final.

With the win, the full team wins special Cabot Cape Breton RBC PGA Scramble headcovers produced by Dormie, as well as a trip to the 2025 RBC Canadian Open at TPC Toronto.

Bob Weeks introduced the champions at the trophy ceremony where PGA professional Schade – who was referred to by his team as “Shadow” throughout the week – got on the microphone.

“The staff here at Cabot, and the course, as well as the whole event were just top notch,” said Schade. “Huge thanks to RBC, adidas and Michelob for making everything happen this week.”

The runner-up was the team from Niagara National Golf & Country Club which included PGA of Canada professional Keaton Jones and amateurs Ryan Nagy, Mike Formica, Shane Belanger and Mike Maloney, while the team from Pinegrove Country Club featuring PGA of Canada professional Louis-Alexandre Pitre and amateurs Luc Guevremont, Laurence Guevremont, Amelia Guevremont and Charles Guevremont rounded out the top 3.

For the second-straight day, the roar of a team who made an ace could be heard across the property. Darcy Myers of Cooke Municipal Golf Course in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan made an ace on the 7th hole of the Links.

In total, the 2024 RBC PGA Scramble featured over 12,000 players from across the country looking to earn a spot at Cabot Cape Breton at over 180 local qualifiers hosted by PGA of Canada professionals. The tournament also set a record with over 1,200 women participants.

If you are an amateur player with a Golf Canada handicap, we hope to see you at a local qualifier in 2025.
