TORONTO (Reuters) - The focus of the golf world may be on the British Open this week but Pan American Games gold is the target for an LPGA Tour veteran, an NHL referee and an 18-year-old Canadian amateur who counts Jordan Spieth as a good friend.
Even Austin Connelly admits he will be keeping tabs on what unfolds at St. Andrews where his occasional practice partner, Masters and U.S. Open champion Spieth, seeks to add a third major to his collection while trying for his own bit of history by capturing gold in golf's Pan Am Games debut.
