Corey Conners, a 27-year-old from Listowel, Ont., finished the first round of the Masters at Augusta National Golf Course temporarily tied for top spot. He shot a 2-under 70 while playing in the first group of the day.
Over at the Listowel Golf Club, the excitement around Conners'is"huge," said assistant pro John Schmidt. Schmidt said there are two things that put Listowel on the map — Conners and the TV comedy"Letterkenny", which revolves around people living in a rural Canadian community. Over in the golf course's lounge, a crowd was expected to come take in the action as the tournament continues through the weekend. Some from the club have even travelled to Georgia to watch Conners' play and are posting updates to the golf course's Twitter account."I think if he keeps his head together, he's going to have a shot at the title," Stewart said."Corey's got the talent to do it, let's just put it that way.
