Kelowna, BC – (July 1, 2015) – Searing temperatures seemed to bring out some scorching scores during the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour’s Ford Series at The Harvest Golf Club in Kelowna, BC, this past week, where junior golfers battled for division titles, international exemptions, and a team interclub victory on June 29th and 30th .
A sizzling score of 68 in the fierce heat, followed up by an impressive 70 on day two, secured Low Overall and the MJT Junior Boys title for local MJT veteran, Lionel Taylor, 19, of Kelowna, BC (68,70=138), who managed to hold off past champion, Steven Lee, 19, also of Kelowna, who had shot excellent rounds of 69, 71 (140). “I didn’t make very many mistakes, and made about five forty-footers,” Taylor said. “I feel really good about winning – I’ve been up there every year and it was nice to win.” Third place in Junior Boys went to Matthew Kreutz, 18, of Coldstream, BC, who came in at even par for the two days (71, 73=144).
