Guterson, Hoodikoff and Hazelmere’s team harvest top spots in MJT Okanagan Event
Kelowna, BC. – (July 16, 2011) – The superb Harvest Golf Club in Kelowna, BC, was the sunny setting for the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour’s first Okanagan stop of the season, where players from BC and Alberta competed in four divisions over 36 holes of individual stroke play as well as the inaugural playing of the MJT Interclub competition. This new feature on the MJT has junior golfers representing their home golf clubs in a team net format.
In the individual competition, Alberta’s David Guterson, of Calgary, and BC’s Jordan Hoodikoff, of Grand Forks, tied for low overall, each winning their respective division titles of Boys 14-16 and Boys 17-19. It took a six hole putt-off to decide Guterson as the winner of an international exemption to the Texas Junior Golf Tour Holiday Classic in Austin, Texas, a well-scouted event in American junior golf.
