Breslau, ON
The Ontario circuit of the non-profit Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour’s Mini Tour teed off its 25th anniversary season for 12U players at Merry-Hill Golf Club in Breslau, this past weekend, with qualifying for three major U13 Golf Championships up for grabs. Winners of the Boys and Girls 9-10 and 8U divisions each earned direct exemptions into the hugely popular FCG Callaway World Championship in Rancho Mirage, California, this July, and all division winners qualified for the season-ending MJT Mini Tour National Championship in Tsawwassen, BC, this August. In addition, the low players in each age category were short-listed for the IMG Academy Junior Worlds in San Diego, California, also in July.
Ethan Tan, 12, of Oakville, ON, and Weijian Lu, 10, of Markham, ON, both played steady golf and tied for the Low Overall honours for the boys on the tough Merry-Hill layout. Low Overall Girl honours went to 11-year-old Kaeleigh Chung of Richmond Hill, ON, who played from the same tees as the boys and matched their rounds of 70. The three who shot 70, along with all division winners, qualified for the FCG Callaway World Championship and the MJT Mini Tour National Championship.
