Swift Current, SK
Canada’s largest Junior Golf Tour saw record numbers once again this May long weekend with almost 150 young athletes participating in the non-profit Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour’s Swift Current stop, testimony to the successful growth of the game in Saskatchewan. Players were competing at Elmwood Golf and Country Club in either the Junior (U19) Tour three-day event on May 20 through 22, or in the Mini Tour (12U) event on May 20. Highlights of the latter event, in which close to 30 youth aged seven to 12 took part, are detailed below.
Keaton Kreklewich, 11, of Melville, SK, outplayed his fellow-competitors and won the Low Overall and MJT Boys 11-12 Division title, his second victory in as many starts this season. “(The win) feels good, and it feels good to go back-to-back wins to start the season,” stated Kreklewich. When asked what he could take away from this event, he said ‘when you just miss your putt, don’t get so frustrated at yourself.’
