The fight for the 2013 PGA of BC PDP title has entered its final month and while there was little change at the top, there is a dogfight for the sixth and final money-earning spot. Kelowna Golf and Country Club's Rob Anderson and Myles Johnson of Spallumcheen Golf & Country Club are tied for sixth and the $250 that comes with that position. At the top of the leaderboard, only three points separate the top three point-getters.
