LETHBRIDGE, AB – Great weather in Lethbridge on the weekend and a perfectly conditioned Paradise Canyon Golf Resort greeted juniors playing in the final Albertan stop this season on the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour (MJT). The MJT One Day Fall Series presented by local sponsor 1st Choice Savings, which was held Saturday September 23rd, introduced a new age division for boys and girls aged 10 and under to competition, and was open to all youth, not just members of the program.
9-year-old Patrick Murphy of Crossfield, AB, fired 88 to win the 10 and under division by 10 strokes, citing his tournament highlight as hitting the ball to within three feet of the pin from the fairway at least a couple of times. “I had a good season and am glad to win,” he said. “My long game was really on; my irons were sticking.” Runner-up to Murphy was Nathan Corrin, 9, of Moose Jaw, SK, who shot 98 for the 18 holes.
First place among Boys 11-13 went to Ryan O’Donnell, 13, of Lethbridge, who fired 85 to win by two strokes over Josh Marshall, 13, of Medicine Hat, AB (87). “On the 9th hole I sunk a 30 foot putt,” said O’Donnell. “My putting and chipping made the difference. I feel good about winning; I kept it together.” Riley Fleming, 13, of Airdrie, AB, took third spot in this division (97).
