Carman Golf Club professional Dean North finished in a tie for second at the 2025 Hodson Financial Men’s Senior Championship, held Aug. 11–13 at Glendale Golf and Country Club.
North, who won the event in 2022, carded rounds of 74 and 72 for a 146 total, sharing runner-up honours with Steve Wood of Winnipeg. Both trailed Steinbach’s Walt Keating, who fired rounds of 69 and 68 to claim the championship at 137.
Geoff Kehler (72–76), Rob Damsgaard (76–72) and Ryan Sommerfeld (73–75) rounded out the top five at 148.
North said the difference between his 2022 title run and this year’s result came down to the smallest margins.
“In 2022 I had a few key putts go in to help me win the event,” he said. “This year, those putts seemed to slip by the edge. I feel pretty good about my game though, and I’m proud to still be around the leaderboard in this event.”
He added that his steady results are rooted in experience. “I believe my consistent play is due to the years I spent competing on the PGA Tour Americas,” he said. “This was our last event for 2025, and it means a lot to be near the top again.”
