"Doug Roxburgh" is a Canadian accountant, champion amateur golfer, and golf administrator. He has won the Canadian Amateur Championship four times, the B.C. Amateur Championship a record 13 times, and is a member of the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame.

Roxburgh was born in Vancouver, British Columbia. He learned golf as a youth, and was runner-up in the Canadian Junior Championship in 1967 at age 15. He scored his first important success in the 1969 B.C. Junior Championship, and repeated his win in that event the next year. He also won the first of his 13 B.C. Amateur Championships in 1969.

Roxburgh won the Canadian Junior Championship by six strokes in 1970. He attended the University of Oregon on a golf scholarship for two years, beginning in 1970, studying commerce, but left to complete his degree at Simon Fraser University. He lost a playoff to Dick Siderowf for the Canadian Amateur Championship in 1971, and won the first of his four Canadian Amateur titles in 1972, repeating in 1974, 1982, and 1988. He has represented Canada a dozen times in international play, including seven times in the Eisenhower Trophy.

A lot of kids hit the ball a long way. They worry too much about how they look instead of getting the ball in the hole. But J.C. understands.

It's just exciting to see such good results. It's very exciting for amateur golf in Canada.

I played alongside him at the Canadian Amateur recently (Deacon lost in the second round) and I could sense he's turned a corner.
