Two players with strong Colorado connections recorded their first top-10 finishes of the PGA Tour Canada season on Sunday at the ATB Financial Classic in Calgary, Alberta.
Michael Schoolcraft (left) of Denver placed seventh in the event, while former University of Colorado golfer Jeremy Paul ended up 10th the week after twin brother Yannik finished fifth in another PGA Tour Canada tournament.
Schoolcraft carded rounds of 68-66-62-72 for a 16-under-par 268 total, which left him 10 strokes behind champion Corey Pereira. Schoolcraft made 10 birdies in Saturday’s 9-under-par third round. It was his third-best finish ever on PGA Tour Canada as he placed second and fourth in 2016.
Meanwhile, Jeremy Paul recorded his best showing ever on the Canadian circuit by going 64-69-69-67 for a 269 total. Paul’s previous best PGA Tour Canada showing was 23rd.
Schoolcraft moved up to 36th on the 2018 Canadian money list with $14,644, while Paul jumped up to 48th at $10,739.
