Wilfred Homenuik (born December 30, 1935) is a Canadian professional golfer. His surname is also spelled Homeniuk in many records.
Homenuik was born in Kamsack, Saskatchewan, and is one of seven brothers, many of whom have also played golf, most notably Stan and Ted. [1]
Homenuik appeared in seven Canadian Opens and three World Cups. [2] Together with Moe Norman and George Knudson, Homenuik is regarded as one of the greatest Canadian golfers of his time, and has been inducted into many golf Halls of Fame. [2]
In late 1966, Homenuik made it onto the PGA Tour at PGA Tour Qualifying School.
Homenuik later became the head professional of the Highlands Golf Course in London, Ontario, in 1976. In 2003 he was still working as a teaching professional at the Oakdale Golf & Country Club in Toronto, Ontario; the club has named one of its three nines after him. [3]
