13CAN11 [THIS IS PGA TOUR CANADA #11 MASTER SCRIPT] Tease: One. This. This. This Is. Two. PGA TOUR. PGA TOUR. This Is PGA TOUR Canada. This Is PGA TOUR Canada. Se Si PGA TOUR Canada. PGA TOUR Canada. And This Is PGA TOUR Canada. Ready. Aim. Fire! Titles –WELCOME TO THE BEST OF THIS IS PGA TOUR CANADA. THE IDEA BEHIND PGA TOUR CANADA IS SIMPLE. TAKE A WELL ESTABLISHED TOUR WITH A HISTORY OF FOSTERING TALENT, CREATE A PGA TOUR EXPERIENCE AND REWARD GOOD PLAY WITH A STEP UP TO THE NEXT LEVEL. IT GAVE PROFESSIONAL GOLF IN CANADA A WHOLE NEW LOOK AND FEEL. Sots from Victoria: isn’t it unbelieveable. It’s the next big thing. Just being involved with something with the pga tour’s name on it was huge for the players. You can already just tell the buzz around here amongst the players and just some of the fans and the volunteers. Everything just seems proper. It seems like a mini PGA TOUR. Everything about seems like a bigger tour. It’s more professional. It looks like you’re at a big event right now, so it has that feel right now. It gives our tour a lot of credibility, the marketing that the pga tour brings and the talent. You know, everyone’s going to be coming up here to play now. THROUGH NINE EVENTS ACROSS CANADA, THE BUZZ WAS ALL ABOUT MAKING “THE 5” – THE TOP 5 MONEY WINNERS WHO MOVE UP TO THE WEB.COM TOUR NEXT YEAR. Sots: Joe Panzeri: Everybody’s goal is top 5 or first on the money list. So every event is big. And if you can come in here and get a win, I mean that literally can change your year, possibly your life. Riley wheeldon: guys are starting to get themselves into the mindset of hey, I’m on the pga tour or this is what I’m going to need to do on the next level. Mackenzie hughes. The tour this year was so deep and they had so many players showing up from all across the world to play this tour because they all knew of they had a great year they had a chance to earn a web.com tour card. And with the exception of the latino america tour, there is no other tour that’s offering that. Hugo leon: I played here a few years and I think that the level of golf has stepped up quite a bit. Besides the web.com and the pga tour on the entire continent, this is the highest level of golf you can find. Wil Collins: There’s so many players that just want to get their foot in the door. Everybody wants to be what the pga tour’s a part of because everybody wants to get to the highest level and have some fun. AFTER A GREAT START, PGA TOUR CANADA WILL ONLY GROW STRONGER IN THE YEARS TO COME, DEVELOPING FUTURE STARS AND ENRICHING COMMUNITES ACROSS CANADA. Page 1 of 9 13CAN11 [THIS IS PGA TOUR CANADA #11 MASTER SCRIPT] Sot Wil Collins: the message was sent out what we were about. I think the players on the tour got into the community really well. It was a different feeling up here this year. I don’t think the year could have gone any better and I only imagine its going to grow. Sot Riley Wheeldon: I think the Canadian fans embraced the pga tour’s presence within Canada. And then with myself being a Canadian obviously, I think I got a little bit of a extra boost each week from the crowd. I heard a lot of guys talking about how nice everybody is here in Canada so I think its good publicity for the players, for the tour and for our country. Recap: JEFF MONDAY AT PODIUM (1:01:05): Good morning everybody, welcome to PGA TOUR Canada.

BUMP WHEN WE COME BACK, 4 STRAIGHT WEEKS, 4 BIG TOURNAMENTS DECIDE WHO EARNS A SPOT ON THE WEB.COM TOUR. SEGMENT 2: WELCOME BACK TO THE BEST OF THIS IS PGA TOUR CANADA EACH WEEK, WE ASKED PGA TOUR CANADA PLAYERS 5 QUESTIONS, SOME ABOUT GOLF, SOME NOT… HERE ARE OUR 5 FAVORITE ANSWERS… Sot: james love: I guess they only had his name tag to put on the range so when I showed up they didn’t have mine, so they just improvised and put his down. It confused a couple of people on the range. Kent eger: I’ve played lots of big courses, and they’re all big and nice but I always tend to like those little 5900 yarders, par 69 that you can just kind of drive every green, putt for lots of eagle and drink a six pack and it wont affect your score that much, you know. Tyler mancini: these are the top guys in the world. Adam Scott is a well known name. He’s one of the best players in the world. And you watch these guys hit it and you start to wonder, like these guys don’t hit it that much better than I do. It’s a few more up and downs a round, and maybe one more fairway hit here and there. And you watch the top guys on our tour and you could put them in the web.com or pga and they would do well. Nick taylor: a couple of years ago I was playing a tournament. Hit a bunker shot, was frustrated. Kind of just swung at the sand just to hit it. And it was a hot muggy day like it was, club goes flying out of my hands, flies up and gets stuck in a tree. Um, that’s for sure the most embarrassing. Learned my lesson and I wont do it again. Mackenzie hughes: I like the theme song from Rudy or I could put on a Rocky montage and sometimes that will do. I don’t even need words. (sings Rocky theme) RECAP – LATE SEASON THE SECOND HALF OF THE SEASON TEED OFF AT THE GREAT WATERWAY CLASSIC IN MORRISBURG, ONTARIO.

HIS 22-UNDER TOTAL AS THE LOWEST WINNING SCORE ON PGA TOUR CANADA IN 2013. THE ONE-STROKE VICTORY – HIS FIRST SINCE THE 2011 ATB FINANCIAL CLASSIC – LAUNCHED HIM INTO 4TH IN THE COVETED TOP 5. LEON SHOW 7 REAP SUB(01:06:55): obviously what comes with this, it’s a great thing, but I’ll take the win and if everything else comes with it, you know usually good golf gets rewarded, so I played great golf this week. MUSIC CHANGE: STAYING IN THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO, PGA TOUR CANADA HEADED SOUTHWEST TO PETERBOROUGH FOR THE WILDFIRE INVITATIONAL PRESENTED BY PC FINANCIAL. MARK HUBBARD CAUGHT FIRE IN THE FINAL ROUND SHOOTING A BOGEY-FREE 5-UNDER PAR 66. HE CARDED ALL FOUR ROUNDS IN THE 60S FOR A 20-UNDER TOTAL, JUMPING INTO THE 5TH SPOT ON THE ORDER OF MERIT. HUBBARD SHOW 8 RECAP SUB (01:07:08) You can’t really think about that stuff way in the future when you’re just out here playing // you just gotta go out an play and I feel like that’s what I did the best this week. I wasn’t thinking about swing stuff, I wasn’t nervous. I was just playing and having fun.

Page 5 of 9 13CAN11 [THIS IS PGA TOUR CANADA #11 MASTER SCRIPT] GILBERT SHOW 10 SUB (01:04:37) I didn’t think I could win so, it’s amazing. (01:59:15) // and good thing I got my card for next year on that Tour and I want to play on that Tour. ONLY AMERICAN MARK HUBBARD TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THE FINAL CHANCE TO JUMP FROM OUTSIDE INTO THE 5.

AND THROUGHOUT THE SEASON WE’VE SEEN MOMENTS DEPICTING THE TRIUMPH OF THE HUMAN SPIRIT, LIKE THE STORY OF COLIN WRIGHT WHOSE HOME WAS DAMAGED IN THE CALGARY FLOODS. Sot Wright: ATB sent a school bus full of 80 volunteers to my home. And they helped here…(cries) Sorry. And we couldn’t have done it without them. MUSIC CHANGE: ANDREW JENSEN HAS BATTLED SEVERE DEPRESSION MOST OF HIS LIFE. HE BROUGHT US HIS STORY OF HOPE. I tried to overdose on my medication. I tried to jump off a building.

SEGMENT 4: YOU’RE WATCHING THE BEST OF THIS IS PGA TOUR CANADA. THE 5 PLAYERS WHO EARNED THEIR WEB.COM TOUR CARDS EACH TRAVELLED DIFFERENT ROADS TO GET THERE. BUT THEY’RE UNITED BY A DESIRE TO PLAY GOLF AT THE WORLD’S HIGHEST LEVEL. Sot wil Collins: confidence is kind of a key word. After losing my card in 2009, a few years after that 2010 and 2011 I floundered around. I was dabbling with different things, new swings and it wasn’t working. It was hard on my psyche. It wasn’t until that stretch of july that I started to cultivate that belief in myself and in my game. And really reminded me of why I’m doing this and where I want to go. I’m headed in the right direction. I’m excited where I’m at. I’m thrilled and I feel like my mind and my belief system are where they need to be to have success next year. Sot leon: 4023 I’m a little older. I had to deal with a year and half that was very very difficult for me. But that made me a lot tougher on the golf course. I realize that this game is, the margin is very small. It can be great and it can be bad even though its not that much of a difference. I don’t take anything for granted. I’m more motivated now and I’ve worked harder for the last 2 years than I ever have before. So I am not going to slow down any, I’m going to keep working as hard and playing as much. I think that a second time around is definitely an advantage. Sot mark hubbard: I felt like I have been good enough to win for a while but I haven’t. Obviously thinking you’re good enough and actually winning is a whole different thing. So yeah, it was huge. I qualified for the reno tahoe open, Page 8 of 9 13CAN11 [THIS IS PGA TOUR CANADA #11 MASTER SCRIPT] being out there, playing with them, hanging with the guys on tour/// just being out and being on the range. there was an eye opener. I felt like I belonged there you know. After that I had a lot of confidence and the win sums it up. I’m definitely feeling really confident about my game. Sot riley wheeldon: Any time you win at any level it’s unparalleled for your confidence. Once you know that you can do it then every time you’re in that situation moving forward you can draw on those experiences. // knowing that I won on this level and that I was able to finish second among all these guys for an entire season at this level, bodes well for the next level. I think that I can translate the performance this summer to the web.com tour next year and hopefully finish inside the top 25. Sot Mackenzie hughes: from where I started this yea rmissing my first three cuts, questioning myself a little bit, getting that reassurance from the people around me. I had a good team around me, parents, coaches. To get that reassurance and to finish the year the way I did. I had a great run there in the last few weeks and its an incredible feeling. DURING OUR SEASON OF SHOOTING, WE’VE HAD SOME GOOFS AND SOME SQUIRRLY MOMENTS. HERE ARE OUR TOP FIVE BLOOPERS OF THE SEASON. AT NUMBER 5, YOHANN BENSON AND KYLE STOUGH GO FOR A WILD RIDE AND LOSE A HELMET CAMERA IN THE PROCESS. AT NUMBER FOUR, STEPHEN LECUYER JUST CAN’T STAY UPRIGHT ON THE SPEED SKATING OVAL.
