“It’s a surprise, but a very nice surprise,” explained the Bromontois when joined in Phoenix, Arizona, where he is currently in training. Clearly, my victory in Toronto impressed a lot of people. ”

Desmarchais, who is a member of the Canadian junior team, is one of the finest prospects in Canadian golf. Many do not hesitate to predict a career in the PGA. This is also the goal of the young man.

“I have confidence in myself, but to see that more and more people believe in me too, that gives confidence”, he continued.

In interview at The voice of the east, following his victory in Toronto, Desmarchais had mentioned that he wanted to become one of the best players in the PGA. Nothing less.

Despite his obvious potential, the athlete from Longueuil knows that he should not sit on his laurels.

“I train hard. I have to if I want to achieve my goals. ”

If Desmarchais is currently in Arizona, it is precisely because he is preparing for his next tournament, which will take place in the State of Georgia in a few weeks. This will be the first competition he will take part in in 2021.

“I can confirm that Americans do not see COVID the same way as in Quebec. Me, I’m careful, but people here don’t go crazy with the wearing of a mask and physical distancing, say. ”

Desmarchais is also completing his college distance course at Cégep André-Laurendeau before entering the University of Tennessee next fall where, of course, he will join the ranks of the golf team.

“The year ahead is shaping up to be pretty good for me. We only hope that the pandemic subsides and that we have the chance, everyone, to be able to do more of what we love in 2021… ”, he wished in conclusion.
