Olds, AB
Olds, AB – (June 10, 2013) –The Boston Pizza-presented Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour (MJT) made a two-day stop at the difficult Olds Central Highlands Golf Club in Olds, AB, over the June 8-9 weekend with the Mountain View Credit Union-sponsored ‘MJT Mountain View Credit Union Classic’. “Very difficult conditions to say the least!” said Tournament Director and PGA Professional, Trent Matson. “The weather played havoc on the players and their parents all weekend. Rain, hail, wind, and lightning caused us to pull the players off a few times, but the course held up well. We were glad to get all 36 holes in.” Despite the bad weather, Jack Gillis, 13, of Calgary, AB, made a hole-in-one on the 169 yard fourth hole to highlight the event, and AJ Armstrong of St. Albert, AB, with Gina Kowalchuk of Lethbridge, AB, were shortlisted for MJT Team Canada to the SRIXON International Junior Classic in New South Wales, Australia, this Fall.
Brett Hawken, 18, of Wetaskiwin, AB, (77-75=152) claimed the MJT Junior Boys 17-19 Champion’s title, citing patience as his key to victory. “It was just like at Spruce Grove – I did not play well but just stayed with it,” said Hawken. Finishing in second place was MJT veteran Bryce Melville, 17, of Morinville, AB, who carded the low round of the second day (80-73=153) followed by Andrew Rados, 18, of Chestermere, AB, who shot rounds of 80-74 (154).
