Hughes wins Canadian Amateur crown

WINNIPEG - He will have to wait a year but a golf dream will come true for Mackenzie Hughes

The Dundas, Ont., native shot a 1-under par 70 at the Niakwa Country Club on Sunday to win the Canadian Men’s Amateur Golf Championship.

Hughes not only earned an exemption into the 2011 U.S. Amateur Championship with the victory, but has also been granted an entry into the 2012 PGA Canadian Open, which will be held in Hamilton — a chip shot from Dundas.
