BOYECHKO WINS SPOT TO USA EVENT AT MJT’S SELKIRK STOP
Selkirk, MB. - (July 4, 2009) – Two great days of golf, with the sun shining and hardly a breath of wind, were enjoyed by the competitors during the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour’s (MJT) Manitoba Series at Selkirk Golf Club in Selkirk on July 2nd and 3rd, and the course was also rated as being in great shape by the tournament staff. The two-day stop had junior golfers from all over Manitoba and parts of Ontario competing in four divisions as well as an exemption into a Future Collegiate World Tour (FCWT) tournament in the United States.
Two first time winners on the MJT claimed the Boys 14-16 and Boys 17-19 division titles. Charlie Boyechko, 16, of Winnipeg, pulled ahead of a three-way tie for first place with Zac Klassen and Scott Mazur after day one with a stellar final round 73 to claim the Boys 14-16 title (77-73=150), despite thinking that he was done for after hitting his tee shot out of bounds on 18. Boyechko also earns an exemption into an FCWT event with his low overall score. Klassen, 15, of Winkler, MB, was runner-up in this division with scores of 77-76 (153) and Mazur finished in third place (77-78=155).
