It was a day of close calls for Canadian golf.<\/p>\n
Taylor Pendrith became the second Canadian to lose in a playoff on Sunday when he fell short against Steven Fisk on the third extra hole at the PGA Tour’s ISCO Championship in Louisville, Ky.<\/p>\n
Earlier, Canada’s Brooke Henderson dropped a playoff against Haeran Ryu at the LPGA Tour’s Evian Championship in France.<\/p>\n
Pendrith, from Richmond Hill, Ont., missed an 11-foot birdie for a win on the first playoff hole. Both players parred the first two playoff holes before Fisk made par and Pendrith had a bogey on the par-4 18th, being played for a third time after the hole location was changed.<\/p>\n
The 35-year-old Pendrith fell just short of his second career PGA Tour title. He last won in 2024 at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson.<\/p>\n
The Canadian hadn’t notched a top-10 finish since tying for sixth at the season-opening Sony Open in Hawaii. He was 97th in the FedExCup standings entering the event.<\/p>\n
Pendrith charged into a playoff with a 5-under 65 in the final round to finish at 16 under.<\/p>\n
Ben Silverman of Thornhill, Ont., tied for third at 15 under, while Mackenzie Hughes of Hamilton, Ont., tied for 10th at 12 under.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It was a day of close calls for Canadian golf.
