Talha Sajjad seemed to be in a good mood as he hauled his clubs out of his car. He said he was excited for the start of the season. Sajjad is originally from Pakistan, so he’s used to golfing year-round.

Sajjad is a member at the Royal Regina course and usually golfs there, but Tor Hill was the first open this year.
It ended up being a good day for golfers, with the high reaching about 21 C in Regina.
