Barrie, ON – (July 29, 2013) – Alex McKay, 18, of Kitchener, ON, came from behind to win low overall and the MJT Junior Boys 17-19 division title at the two-day MJT Nationwide Series at National Pines Golf Club on the Boston Pizza-presented Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour, July 27th and 28th, citing his mental game and confidence throughout the rounds as key to victory.
“I didn’t expect to win honestly, I was five shots off the lead coming into the last round and I knew that Ryan (Vandenbroek) was a strong competitor,” said McKay, who shot 80-71=151. “It feels outstanding to win seeing as I didn’t expect to finish top three – I’m thrilled with how I played today.” Second place in the Junior Boys division went to Riley Burgess, 17, of Rosseau, ON, who carded 78, 77=155, and Justin Smith, 18, of Toronto, ON, rounded out the top three (77, 79=156). Vandenbroek, of St. Thomas, ON, finished tied for fourth (75-87).
