More than 100 participants took part in the Coca-Cola Classic golf tournament on Saturday at the Annie Lake golf course.

Vic Istchenko was in the clubhouse with a 74 and Derek Baldwin had one hole to play and was two over par at that point.

Baldwin birdied his last hole to move to one over par and take the championship.

This was Baldwin's third Coca-Cola Championship in a row.

The Senior Division saw Larry Whelan, the manager of the Faro Golf Course, shoot an 82 to take the championship by two shots over Jim Harris.

Three players finished tied for first low net with Dave Griffiths taking the honours in a tiebreaker.

The ladies division saw Nicole Baldwin light up the course for an impressive 84 win by 14 shots over Birgitte Hunter.
