Three-time men’s amateur winner Scott headlines Canadian Golf Hall of Fame class
The last time Richard Scott was at Mississaugua Golf and Country Club he won the 2006 Canadian Amateur Championship. When he returns this August, it will be so he can be enshrined in the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame.
Scott, Jerry Anderson and Charles Blair Macdonald were named the 2025 induction class for the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame on Wednesday. The trio will be formally enshrined into the hall at a ceremony during the CPKC Women’s Open which runs Aug. 20-24.
“It was truly remarkable, truly amazing,” Scott said of the honour. “The first thing I thought about was my mom and dad. All the years and years of time, money, effort, love that they put into me and my passion for golf.
“The sacrifice parents make for junior golfers when they’re growing up is extreme. I was travelling all over North America and the world even at that time. They really motivated me and let me pursue my passion.”
