Petersburg, ON
Petersburg, ON – July 27, 2016 – Junior golfers on Canada’s number-one played junior golf tour competed in hot, humid conditions the past two days in the MJT Srixon Series at Rebel Creek Golf Club in Petersburg, ON, battling for division titles in six age groups plus the chance to qualify for MJT Team Ontario into the International Team Challenge (ITC) at Hunters Pointe Golf Club near Niagara Falls, ON, this September. Tricky greens and pin positions made scoring tough for some, however Thomas Giroux of Georgetown, ON, fired great rounds of 70, 73 (143) to win Low Overall and the MJT Junior Boys trophy.
“The key to my win was my driver – I was very straight and long and it put me in the positions to attack the pins,” he said afterwards. “Coming down the stretch I knew I had a few shots to spare so I told myself to just hit the fairways and greens and I will hold the win.” Second place in this division went to Michael Dubois, 17, of Brantford, ON (73, 76=149) and third place to Owen Dick, 17, of Toronto (74, 76=150).
