Cannon Heats Up At Just The Right Time Indian Trail, NC. � In every sport, there is a time of the year in which to peak. In college basketball, you want your team firing on all cylinders come March. In the NFL, the colder it gets outside, the better you want to play and the more vital each Sunday seems to feel. In developmental tour golf, the entire year means nothing if you don�t play well in the fall. Given that theory, Matt Cannon might be hitting his stride at just the right time. Quackenbush and Gainey Share The Lead Indian Trail, NC. � 2006 Southern Open champion Brian Quackenbush and Tommy �Two Gloves� Gainey each fired opening-round 65s in the Tarheel Tour�s MonaVie Open on Wednesday and will share a one-shot lead over two players heading into Thursday�s second round.

No Members Bounces Needed For Cannon Huntersville, NC � In the world of developmental-tour golf, there is always a player with a certain advantage to watch out for. There is the player who bombs his tee shots; the player who gets up and down from literally everywhere and any lie; the player whose iron shots land like a wet bag of clay on even the firmest of greens. Then, there is the advantage that no one likes to compete against: The player who is a member at the tournament course. That fearsome advantage falls to none other than all-time Tarheel Tour money leader Matt Cannon at this week�s NorthStone Open at the NorthStone Club in Huntersville. Membership must have its privileges as Cannon shares the lead heading into Friday�s final round. Red Numbers Dominate Northstone Huntersville, NC � A few years ago, when the Tarheel Tour held its second annual Match Play Championship at the NorthStone Club in Huntersville, NC, a round of even par likely earned a 4 and 3 victory and a trip to the next round. Firm greens, cold air, and treacherous pins made the P.B. Dye-designed layout play more like Pine Valley than the member-friendly course players had grown to love. In this week�s NorthStone Open, a stroke play event, even par will earn a �thank you� from the tournament committee and a quick trip to the driving range. At the end of day one, a threesome highlighted by former Wofford star William McGirt led with opening rounds of 65. Bare Records Top-20 Finish in PGA Tour's Wyndhan Championship Tarheel Tour member Andy Bare finished a memorable week in Greensboro with his first top-20 finish on the PGA Tour. Bare recovered from a shaky start Sunday, birdying five of his final six holes to shoot a 2-under par 70, finishing the Wyndham Championship at 14-under par. The round left him tied for 20th and earned the UNC-Greensboro alumnus just over $52,000. It was Bare�s first made cut on the PGA Tour in only his second start. He also participated in the 2006 U.S. Open at Winged Foot.
