Darren Wallace is playing in the RBC Canadian Open this week at Shaughnessy Golf and Country Club. The 22-year-old from 91Ô­´´ qualified after shooting a 7-under par 65 on Monday at the Morgan Creek Golf Course. This is Wallace’s second shot at the Canadian Open, as he also played as a teenager after becoming the youngest ever winner of the Canadian Amateur championship.

It was a tale of two halves for Darren Wallace at the PGA's RBC Canadian Open.

On the back nine during the first and second rounds of last week's event at Vancouver's Shaughnessy Golf and Country Club, the 22-year-old from 91Ô­´´ played the tough course 3-under par.

But it was the front nine on both the Thursday and Friday which did in the young golfer.

Wallace shot those 18 holes 9-over par, a result which had him finish his 36 holes at 6-over par, missing the cut by two strokes.

Wallace also played the 2004 Canadian Open as a 15-year-old — after becoming the youngest winner ever of the Canadian Amateur Championship.
