Langley, BC
A full field of 98 young golfers aged 12U turned out to compete in Canada’s number one-played Junior Golf Tour, the non-profit Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour, on Saturday, May 13, in the MJT Mini Tour at GreenTee Country Club in Langley, BC. Highlights included another impressive performance by 11-year-old Jenny Guo, of West Vancouver, BC, who finished the day at two-under par (70) to claim MJT Girls Low Overall honours, while MJT Boys Low Overall was won by Jackson Wang, 11, of Surrey, BC, after he fired a sizzling 68 (-4). Wang’s five birdie performance on the back nine sealed the deal in an impressive comeback as he was down by one at the turn.
Players were competing for titles in six divisions. Winners of each receive exemptions into the season-ending MJT Mini Tour National Championship in Tsawwassen, BC, this August, and the top two in each division qualify for the MJT Mini Tour Order of Merit (OOM) Invitational at Quilchena Golf and Country Club in Richmond, BC, on May 27.
