"That experience that I had on the Americas Tour… I can always lean back on that and know that I can compete out here."
Round 1 leader Johnny Keefer is leaning on his @PGATOURAmericas experience in his third Korn Ferry Tour start.
New five-course rotation for @ManitobaOpen
Breezy Bend Country Club will be the first of the five courses in the rotation in 2025, alongside proud partners James Richardson & Sons, Johnston Group and Princess Auto.
News today regarding the @ManitobaOpen. I’m hearing the tournament is on the move, with five local golf courses joining together to form a partnership that will see the annual @PGATOURAmericas event rotate each summer. Story (and more details) to come for @WinnipegNews.
Breezy Bend (2025)
Elmhurst (2026)
Glendale (2027)
Pine Ridge (2028)
Southwood (2029)
That’s the first run through the new @ManitobaOpen course rotation.
Way to go @southwood1894 team, sponsors and volunteers. Job well done. It’s not just about the golf. It’s about giving back & making Manitoba communities & organizations stronger.
Jets top centre Mark Scheifele is not a big wifi on the plane sort of guy but he made an exception to watch teammate Dylan Samberg participate in the @PGATOURAmericas at the @ManitobaOpen where the Minnesotan played quite well.

So many close calls. And now, Johnny Keefer is finally standing tall.
One of the most crowded and talented leaderboards in recent @ManitobaOpen history led to a dramatic finish that came down to the final shot on the final hole.

He ultimately came up one swing short on Sunday at @southwood1894, but @PGATOURAmericas rookie Neal Shipley made quite an impression during his first — and perhaps last — @ManitobaOpen.
Golf fans should get used to hearing his name.

The sun is setting on one of my favourite weeks of the year.
I always love covering the @ManitobaOpen on scene for @WinnipegNews, and this year was especially enjoyable.
Thanks for following along.
Now, 2 weeks of holidays.
And then full speed ahead on the #NHLJets beat.
