Induction ceremony set for June in Toronto
Golf is mostly an individual sport, so the few times you can be part of a national team representing your country, truly stand out. Jim Rutledge of Victoria, announced Monday for induction into the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame in the Class of 2023, cited representing Canada in three World Cups and two Dunhill Cups as among his leading career highlights.
The induction ceremony will take place during the RBC Canadian Open on June 6 at the Oakdale Club in Toronto.It follows the 63-year-old’s induction into the Victoria Sports Hall of Fame with the Class of 2022 and the B.C. Golf Hall of Fame with the Class of 2011. He certainly isn’t and proved that by winning the 2022 PGA Seniors Championship of Canada last summer in Medicine Hat, Alta., for his seventh title in the event, one behind the record of eight held by Canadian golf legend Moe Norman.
During the 2010 Telus Skins Game on Bear Mountain, former PGA Tour star Fred Couples of Seattle acknowledged being on the Island, and mentioned his great battles against Rutledge during their Pacific Northwest junior days. That was quite the shout out, considering Rutledge wasn’t in the Skins Game.
