Weir out early

From Thursday's Globe and Mail

Oakville, Ont. — Fans will have to get out to the Glen Abbey Golf Club early today if they want to see Mike Weir in action. If play starts on time at the soggy course, Canada's favourite golfing son will go off at 7:30 a.m. (all times EDT) in a threesome with Richard S. Johnson of Sweden and Todd Hamilton of the United States. They'll start on the 10th hole.

Stephen Ames of Calgary will start on the first hole at 12:45 p.m., along with Troy Matteson of the United States and Australian John Senden. The other PGA Tour regular from Canada, Jon Mills of Belleville, Ont., will start at 1:45 p.m. from the 10th tee with American Justin Bolli and David Hearn of Brantford, Ont.

Kids watch free

Young golf fans get a deal at the RBC Canadian Open — free admission.

Children 15 and under will be admitted to the Glen Abbey Golf Club free with a ticket-bearing adult on all four days of the tournament, which is scheduled to begin this morning.

"It's been this way for years, but it seems the message never got out there," Royal Canadian Golf Association executive director Scott Simmons said yesterday.
