It has been a while since I posted an article. I guess the pandemic must have stopped my fingers from typing. But the end with this health crisis is in sight
First of all, a big congratulations to all the events and tours that met the challenge and implemented protocols to protect their staff, junior golf players, and parents during competition.Golf in general was a sport that flourished during the pandemic since it was outdoors and junior golf players could easily social distance. At this moment, our sport is back in full swing. Which brings us to 2021.
The AJGA has a full schedule, the Notah Begay series is back for a second year, Golfweek Junior Tour in the midwest is ready to go, and Hurricane has joined up with Nick Faldo for their own series. Major junior golf events are back on the schedule like the USGA Junior Amateurs, the Western, The Robertson, Junior Heritage at Sea Pines, and many others. Finally the state and junior golf associations like the Florida State Golf Association and JGAA are now posting their state junior AMs and events with us.
Here at the Scoreboard we have been busy too. Of special note is our new Course Condition Adjustment addition to junior golf rankings, improvements for the college coaches Coaches Corner, and additions to our Golf and Academic Resume feature. We also are receiving an increasing number of foreign tournament results from countries like India, Thailand, Mexico, Indonesia, China, and the Philippines.
So it looks like a bright year for our sport. All the best to everyone and play well !
