CLOVERDALE, BC – A major event on the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour (MJT), endorsed by the Professional Golfers’ Association of British Columbia (PGA of BC) and British Columbia Golf Association (BCGA), played out Tuesday through Thursday, July 29th to July 31st, on Northview Golf Course in Cloverdale, BC. The 54-hole tournament, the MJT-PGA of BC Junior Championship, was presented by Odlum Brown Limited, and is part of a series of national events pioneered by the MJT in conjunction with the provincial CPGA zones. A full field of 97 junior golfers teed off on the superbly conditioned Canal Course, with a cut after 36 holes to the top 60 players on the Ridge Course.

Two-time defending champion, Dong Su, 18, of Richmond, BC, and Point Grey Golf Club, once again repeated as both Boys 17 and up and overall MJT-PGA of BC Junior Champion in outstanding fashion after a wire-to-wire victory with rounds of 69-65-68 (202) - a brilliant 14-under-par total score. “I told myself that I have to win this event and I did it,” he said. “Also this is my last junior event - thank you, MJT, because you guys (have been) watching me become a good player, good luck in the future, MJT!” Seven strokes back in this division was Ted Cho, 19, of Langley, BC, and Redwoods Golf Club, who shot 70-69-70. Third place went to Kelowna’s Brett Devries, 17, of Gallagher’s Canyon, who followed up his opening round of 69 with 74-70 to finish at 213.
