Corey Bailey, with new Broncos cap and baby Brooks in tow, wins Sask. mid-Am golf title
Article content HUMBOLDT — Over a decade had passed since Corey Bailey last handed in a winning Golf Saskatchewan scorecard. Article content A lot has changed since then. Article content Bailey has gone from a provincial champion teenager, to a short-lived college golf career, to a proud dad of a 14-month old toddler. Article content Back in 2014, Bailey was a 17-year-old teen from Shaunavon when he captured the provincial junior boys golf championship at the Evergreen Golf Course in Nipawin. Article content Article content Now, at age 28, he is a first-time Saskatchewan mid-Amateur champion (for men 25 years and older) at the Humboldt Golf Club. Article content Article content 'It's really fulfilling and I'm just so happy,' said Bailey, who calls Swift Current home. 'I've got to thank my lovely girlfriend (Alexa Wandler) for letting me practice and work on my game. I really appreciate her. She's my rock. She holds down the fort for me.' Article content Wandler was on hand to watch along with the couple's 14-month-old son, Brooks, decked out in a white Masters caddie jumpsuit. Article content 'I picked it up the local restaurant here in town and I thought it would be a good touch for today — maybe a lucky charm,' offered Bailey, who wore the hat for the very first time Thursday on his way to a two-shot victory over Humboldt hometown favourite Paul Raycroft. Article content Article content 'I knew it was going to be tough. I heard, from a few people, how good he (Raycroft) is, and how far he hits the ball. It's all true. He's a really good player. It sucked that things didn't go his way but it was tough out there with the wind and tournament golf is tough.' Article content Article content Bailey — who will continue on Friday searching for his first-ever Saskatchewan Amateur title — finished the mid-Amateur portion at 7-under-par (64-71-74—209). Article content Raycroft finished two strokes back at 5-under (70-64-77—211), settling for second among the mid-Amateur male golfers. Article content 'Just sticking in the present and taking each shot at a time (was the key),' Bailey said when asked what the key was to his win. Article content 'The front nine was tough. I just kind of stayed with it through the back nine and hit some good shots coming in.' Article content After winning his junior title in 2014, Bailey went down south to attend college and play golf for a year in the Phoenix area at South Mountain Junior College.
