Vancouver, BC
Beautiful weather and a well-kept Musqueam Golf Course in Vancouver, BC, led to a great day of golf for the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour’s Mini Tour Series for players aged 12 and under on Sunday, May 1st, the first in a series of eight events in the province series which culminates in a Mini Tour National Championship presented by Ford at Tsawwassen Springs Golf Club in Tsawwassen this August.
In the Girls U8 division, Anna Huang (7) of Pacific Golf Academy shot 71 and commented that her Mum caddying for her was the reason she was able to win. Elise Liu (9) from Quilchena Golf Club and Pacific Golf Academy chipped in for a birdie on hole three en route to becoming champion of the Girls 9-10 division with a score of 64 on the Par 60 layout. In the Girl’s Peewee division, Angela Aurora (11) won her first MJT event with a score of 70. Afterwards Aurora said, “I have been practicing chipping by putting a bucket 15 yards away from me and trying to chip into the bucket. That has helped a lot!”
