Windy, cold and hail was what the weatherman dialed up for the first event on the Callaway Interior PGA Tour.
It was great British Open weather for the 28 players who teed it up at Black Mountain Golf Course.
Despite the difficult conditions, there was some excellent golf played and former Canadian Tour Pro Dion Siriani, now working out of Tobiano in Kamloops, grabbed his first victory with a 2-under 69 to win $475.
Keith Vandenbrink of Hillview carded a 70 with four birdies in a row on the back nine en route to a 31. He pocketed $335 in a tie with Myles Johnson of Spallumcheen and Dean Claggett of Two Eagles in West Kelowna.
Greg Machler of Summerland shot 72 to claim, $230, while Jesse Crowe of Canoe Creek in Salmon Arm and Jamie Stevens of Kelowna Golf Club each fashioned 73 for $175/
