Meet the Calgarian who makes his PGA Tour debut this week at Canadian Open
Article content Going further back, it's a moment that he was envisioning as a youngster as he honed his skills on the fairways and greens at Calgary G&CC. 'I'm just thrilled that it's already here,' Thomson said as he prepared for his PGA Tour debut. 'I'm probably more looking forward to it than anything. It's just going to be a great learning experience. I'm not scared of it in any way, but it's obviously a pretty big deal. Making my pro debut as a Canadian at the Canadian Open is super special and something I'll remember for the rest of my life.' Thomson will tee off Thursday at TPC Toronto as a relative unknown. A bunch of birdies could quickly change that. He's the most talented golf prospect to come out of Alberta in recent memory. He shredded the school record books at the University of Michigan, where he led his squad in scoring in each of his four seasons and put an exclamation point on his post-secondary career with a victory last month at one of the NCAA's regional championships. That was his fourth individual win at the collegiate level.
