Dawson Lew entered the final round tied for the lead with Tobias Buffam and ended it by becoming a two-time national champion.

Lew of Toronto, Ont. closed out the final round with a 3-under 69 finishing the tournament at 17-under to win by three. The Team Canada NextGen member wrapped up his second national championship with rounds of 70-65-67-69-271, carding one eagle and 20 birdies during the week. Buffam of Calgary, Alta. shot an even par 72 to finish at 14-under with rounds of 67-69-66-71-274.

“Its unreal,” said Lew after becoming a two-time national champion.

“I try not to worry about who I am playing with, my main goal is to come out and do what I had to do which is hit good targets off the tees and into the greens, and continue to commit to every shot, and I think I did a pretty good job of that today,” said Lew on whether he enjoys playing in the same group as the person he is competing against.

Lew said he is a leaderboard watcher but even with his hot start of three birdies through the first five holes, he did not let it affect his game on Thursday.

“On the last three or four holes I just laid up some putts, but other than that it didn’t really change how I played,” said Lew.

Lew and Buffam were neck and neck today; Lew took an early two shot lead after grabbing a birdie on the first hole while Buffam bogeyed. Lew held the lead through the first six holes then had a tough bogey on hole no. 7 where Buffam birdied to jump back into a tie for the lead.

Lew regained the lead shortly after on hole no. 9, the two stayed even through 11 holes until Buffam had a tough double bogey on no. 12 followed by a bogey on no. 13. Lew would also bogey no. 13 but now had a three-shot lead heading into the final five holes. Lew later missed a two-foot putt for birdie on hole no. 16 but did not let it change his mentality.

“I was just like what am I doing, but I mean I still had a three-shot lead, I knew if I had two good tee shots on 17 and 18 it would do the trick,” said Lew.

Heading into the final hole of the championship Lew played it safe to ensure the victory.

“I was just going to play it as a three-shot hole, driver kind of brings in the fescue on the right so I just decided to hit three wood off the tee, and then I laid up with a pitching wedge then I just hit a flip wedge on and two putted for par.”

With the win Lew’s name will be forever etched in the history books as he joins eight fellow Canadians who have won both the Canadian Junior Boys Championship and the Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship.

“It’s an unreal feeling, I know Nick Taylor did it and anytime you’re in the same sentence as him its pretty cool, he is a Canadian Icon. So yeah, I mean it’s surreal, I don’t think its really set in yet.”

In 2024, Lew was in a golf cart accident and suffered a significant injury ending his season due to a broken tibia. After rehabbing it over the winter he proceeded to win five tournaments in 2025 highlighted by his first national championship at the, Canadian Junior Boys Championship.

“I mean I haven’t really thought of that moment in a while. Yeah, I don’t really let the past define me and I feel like if I keep my sight forward not thinking about the past,” said Lew on whether he thinks back to 2024 and everything he had to deal with.

Lew plans to celebrate with a flight home back to Toronto later this evening along with some sleep followed by celebrating with his friends and family tomorrow.

In addition to winning the Earl Grey Cup Lew will receive a direct exemption into the 2027 RBC Canadian Open, the 126th U.S. Amateur Championship, 2027 U.S. Open Final Qualifying, and 2027 U.S. Amateur Final Qualifying. Lew will also be exempt to defend his title at the 2027 Canadian Amateur Championship if he is eligible.

Buffam finished runner-up, while Brett Jones of Calgary, Alta. and Jean-Philippe Par of St-Célestin, Que. finished tied for third at 12-under.

More than a century old, there is no amateur golf championship in Canada with a richer history than the Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship.  The Canadian Men’s Amateur is one of the oldest amateur golf events in the world some past champions include the Canadian golf heroes George S. Lyon, Moe Norman, Nick Westlock, Gary Cowan, Doug Roxburgh, Nick Taylor, Mackenzie Hughes and many more.

Mickelson National Golf Club and Heritage Pointe Golf Club will both play to a Par 72 with a cut following Tuesday’s second round. The low 70 players and ties will advance to the final two rounds of the national championship at Mickelson National Golf Club.

Mickelson National Golf Club has rapidly become a popular space for recreational and professional golfers since opening its doors in 2020, having already hosted Canada’s elite competitors at the 102nd playing of the PGA Championship of Canada in 2024.

Mickelson National boasts a raw, natural aesthetic, nestling its operations between prairie vistas, rolling hills and snow-capped mountains to accurately capture the course’s identity in Western Canada. Oscillated elevations – including a 90-foot drop between the tee box and the green on the par-4 16th – make the course a championship-level test and force players to get creative with their shot-making choices.

“Windmill Golf Group is honoured to host the 121st Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship at Mickelson National Golf Club and Heritage Pointe Golf Club,” said Barry Ehlert, CEO, Windmill Golf Group. “This prestigious event showcases some of the finest amateur golfers from around the world, and we are excited to welcome them to our facilities next week for an exceptional week of championship golf.”

Heritage Pointe Golf Club will serve as the co-host venue to help accommodate the tournament’s larger field and will host play for the opening two rounds of the championship. Heritage Pointe has previously hosted a wide array of professional and amateur events since opening in 1992.

“Heritage Pointe has hosted many large and prestigious golf events over the years, but nothing quite as storied as this special tournament,” said David Robinson, VP of Operations, Heritage Pointe Golf Club. “We look forward to welcoming some of the best amateur golfers from Canada and around the world to southern Alberta for the 121st Canadian Amateur Championship.”

Twelve of the top 500 amateur golfers listed on the World Amateur Golf Rankings (WAGR) will compete at this year’s Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship, with 10 countries represented including Australia, Austria, Canada, France, Hong Kong, China, Mexico, Poland, Republic of China, Republic of Ireland, and the United States.

Justin Matthews of Little Britain, Ont. is currently the lowest-ranked player (WAGR) in the field at No. 89. Matthews is currently playing his final season for the Charlotte University 49ers. At the 2025 Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship, Matthews finished T10. He was also one of the Canadians who received an exemption into the 2026 RBC Canadian Open, where he finished T29 and earned the Gary Cowan Medal as the low Canadian Amateur in the field.

Along with Matthews, Team Canada members Dawson Lew and Ethan Wilson will be in the field. Lew of Toronto, Ont. (WAGR no. 235) is committed to attend the University of North Carolina in the fall of 2027. Last season, Lew won the 2025 Canadian Junior Boys Championship and finished T5 at the 2025 Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship. Wilson of St. Albert, Alta. (WAGR no. 374) is a current team member of the University of Illinois Fighting Illini. At last year’s 2025 Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship, Wilson finished T18, with his best finish coming in 2024, when he finished T13.

Matthews, Lew and Wilson will be joined by 11 of their Team Canada teammates including Eddie Gui (Aurora, Ont.), Thomas Grenier (Thetford Mines, Que.), Cooper Humphreys (Vernon, B.C.), Matthew Javier (North York, Ont.), Chase Jerome (Ottawa, Ont.), Austin Krahn (Christina Lake, B.C.), Émile Lebrun (Laval, Que.), Maxim McKenzie (Chilliwack, B.C.), Jager Pain (Woodbridge, Ont.), Alexis Rouleau (Montreal, Que.), Spencer Shropshire (Ramara, Ont.), and Eric Zhao (North York, Ont.).

“We are proud and excited to bring the 121st Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship in Calgary next week at two outstanding venues,” said Adam Cinel, Tournament Director, Golf Canada. “We are grateful for the dedication shown by the staff and volunteers at Mickelson National Golf Club and Heritage Pointe Golf Club, whose work in conditioning the golf courses and recruiting volunteers has been exceptional. Their efforts will help create a memorable championship experience for all players in the field.”

The Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship is the third oldest amateur championship in the world, having debuted at the Ottawa Golf Club – now known as The Royal Ottawa Golf Club in 1895. Initially contested as a match play competition, Canadian Golf Hall of Famer George S. Lyon won the Amateur eight times between 1898 and 1914 while fellow Canadian Golf Hall of Famer Sandy Somerville captured six championships between 1924 and 1938.

Canadian Golf Hall of Famer George S. Lyon won the Amateur eight times between 1898 and 1914 and was runner-up two more times. Fellow Canadian Golf Hall of Famer Sandy Somerville made it to the match play final ten times between 1924 and 1938, capturing six championships. Other past champions include Canadian Golf Hall of Famers and four-time winners, Nick Weslock (1957, 1963, 1964, 1966) and Doug Roxburgh (1972, 1974, 1982, 1988). Most recently, two-time PGA TOUR winner Mackenzie Hughes claimed the championship in consecutive years (2011, 2012), while 2023 RBC Canadian Open champion and five-time PGA TOUR winner Nick Taylor claimed the 103rd Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship in 2007.

In addition to the Earl Grey Cup, the winner of the 2026 Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship will earn an exemption into the 2027 RBC Canadian Open at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley in Caledon, Ont. set for June 9-13, 2027. The champion will also earn exemption into the 2026 U.S. Amateur Championship, 2027 U.S. Open Final Qualifying and 2027 U.S. Amateur Final Qualifying.

The 72-hole stroke play competition will get underway on Monday, July 27 and wrap up Thursday, July 30. The national championship will also feature an Inter-Provincial Team Championship that will run concurrently through the first 36 holes of competition. Each day, the lowest three individual 18-hole scores will count towards the team score for players representing provinces. Team Ontario will look to retain the Willingdon Cup (awarded annually to the top province at the Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship), after winning last year’s title.

Addison Kartusch (St. Charles Country Club) had a nice finish Friday at the Canadian Women’s Amateur carding a 1-under par 70 to move up 12 spots on the final leaderboard.

Rina Kawasaki entered the final round with the lead and did not let up to win the Championship, presented by BDO, at The Toronto Golf Club in Mississauga, Ontario.

Kawasaki closed with her third consecutive round in the 60’s (72-69-68-69-278) to finish the tournament at 6-under, winning by four shots over 2023 champion and Team Canada member Lauren Kim of Surrey, B.C.

“It’s really an honour to be part of such a historic tournament. 112 years of history is really impressive and to do it at such a historic venue is really amazing,” said Kawasaki after being presented with the Duchess of Connaught Gold Cup.

“I would have been happy walking away with a top 10 finish, so it’s really amazing,” she added.

Kawasaki entered Friday with two holes to play as a handful of the field needed to close their third rounds. She finished with two pars, while Kim finished bogey, par, par giving Kawasaki a one shot lead heading to the first tee at 11 a.m. EDT.

Kawasaki got her final round off to a strong start with a birdie on the opening hole to take a two shot over Kim, which increased to three following a bogey from Kim on two. The tension increased after both Kawasaki and Kim carded birdies on three before Kawasaki dropped a stroke the next hole, decreasing her lead to two.

Kawasaki’s lead rose to three again following a bogey from Kim on eight. Another big swing on the leaderboard closed the front nine as Kim’s birdie coupled with Kawasaki’s bogey put the 2023 champion to within one of the lead.

Kawasaki’s strong play on the back nine all tournament guided her on Friday recording birdies on Nos. 13 and 17 to head to the 18th with a three-shot lead. While she admitted she “felt the nerves coming in” during the back nine, it never showed, playing with a calm and cool precision throughout.

On No. 18 a perfectly placed drive set up for an easy par to win the championship. Kawasaki finished her back nine at a collective 8-under for the week and credited being able to start most of her rounds on No. 1 which allowed her to shake off any mistakes from the front and finish strongly.

The 16-year-old who was born in Tokyo, Japan, moved to Hawaii with her family at the age of three and later to Palos Verdes Estates, Calif. where they currently call home. Kawasaki was playing and visiting Canada for the first time and regardless of winning the national championship it made a memorable impression on her.

“I didn’t know what to expect, it’s my first time in Canada, ever since I landed here the people have been so nice.

“Toronto Golf Club, the people are amazing. Everything has exceeded my expectations. It’s really amazing. The volunteers, the members and staff I just feel everyone welcomed us with an open heart and that’s what I really enjoyed about this week,” she added.

Equally as memorable in winning a national championship is getting to do it with family by your side. Kawasaki’s father Yasu has served as her caddy and was on the bag for her this week and Kawasaki thinks they make a pretty good duo.

“I feel I am more go for the pin, go for the number and my dad is more like hold up, just think about it, it’s a really good clash of personalities and we’ve been a really good duo this week and I hope we will be a really good duo forever,” she said with a smile.

Kawasaki will be returning to Canada next month to compete at the 2026 CPKC Women’s Open at the Royal Mayfair Golf Club in Edmonton, Alta. from August 19 – 23, it will be her first appearance competing on the LPGA Tour.

“Feels amazing, it’s going to be different in the field itself. I am really excited. Going pro is one of my dreams when I grow up so I think being able to stand in the field of the pros that I aspire to be one day and to see what makes them so good and what makes me not so different from them, I am really excited to see that.”

In addition to the CPKC Women’s Open exemption, she will also receive an exemption into the 2026 U.S. Women’s Amateur Championship in Ooltewah, Tenn., August 4 – 9. Kawasaki also receives an exemption into the 113th Canadian Women’s Amateur Championship, presented by BDO at Priddis Greens Golf & Country Club in Calgary, Alta., from July 19 – 23, 2027.

Kim finished solo second at 2-under while a trio finished tied for third at 1-under including Aphrodite Deng (Calgary, Alta.), Angelina Tolentino (Mount Laurel, N.J.) and Jie-En Lin of Chinese Taipei. Deng tied the low round of the week with a 5-under 66 on Friday, Tolentino carded the same score for her third round.

On Wednesday, Team Ontario reclaimed the Inter-Provincial Team Championship for the third time in four years, finishing eight shots clear of Team Manitoba (Kartusch, Jeri Lafleche & Jewel Lafleche).

Team Ontario finished with a collective score of 15-over, Team Manitoba finished second at 23-over and Team Quebec closed out the top three at 24-over.

Having debuted in 1901 at the Royal Montreal Golf Club in Montreal, Que., the Canadian Women’s Amateur Championship stands as one of the oldest amateur golf events in the world. Current LPGA Tour stars Ariya Jutanugarn (2012), Brooke Henderson (2013), Hye-Jin Choi (2016), Jennifer Kupcho (2017), and Yealimi Noh (2018) have all lifted the Duchess of Connaught Gold Cup, presented annually to the Canadian Women’s Amateur champion – though none have matched Marlene Stewart Streit’s 11 victories that helped her become the first-ever Canadian inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame (2004).

As weather continues to disrupt play in southern Ontario at the Canadian Women’s Amateur Championship, Addison Kartusch (St. Charles Country Club) is Manitoba’s lone participant in action.

Kartusch carded a 7-over par 78 Thursday during her third round dropping to T43 on the leaderboard at 13-over par 226.

Rina Kawasaki of Japan and Lauren Kim of British Columbia are tied for the lead at 4-under par 141, however both will resume their third round early Friday prior to teeing off for their final 18 holes.
