September 10, 2010
The TJGT Elite Mini Tour kicked off it’s third season with the Mini Tour Kickoff held at Castle Hills Golf Club in Carrollton.

Fourteen mini tour players teed it up in near perfect conditions each day. The mini tour players were greeted at registration with a dozen Titleist ProV1 golf balls, a cap, a golf shirt, and a T-shirt. Not only were the mini tour players showered with registration gifts, but as part of the Tour’s ‘Beat the Heat’ special, all players were allowed to ride in carts. Can’t think of a better way to spend the Labor Day holiday.
The play was remarkable as well. In the boys 12-13 division, there were two players that posted rounds of under par. Mason Greenberg posted two of those rounds by firing…

Sixty-five junior golfers from Texas and Mexico teed it up in August weather, which means extreme heat and lots of humidity. All Boys 12-18 played 6,702 yards and all Girls 12-18 played 5,701 yards.

TWO GREAT EVENTS ON THREE INCREDIBLE COURSES!
August 19, 2010
Two great events on three incredible courses. With this being the last week of summer break before most players head back to school it was a great opportunity to take advantage of the high level of competition on challenging courses before gearing up for high school golf. The TGJT had two events going on, The TJGT Gleneagles Country Club Junior Championship in Dallas and The TJGT Slick Rock-Escondido Championship down near Austin. The TJGT would also like to say good luck to all of the junior golfers trying out for their high school team in the upcoming weeks.

Red Hot at Redstone!
August 4, 2010
The TJGT Redstone Junior Classic was played August 2-3 2010 at the Redstone Country Club in Houston, Texas.
Wow! Scorching hot is an understatement! It was hot at the Shell Houston Open’s Redstone Country Club Tournament Course. Regardless of the heat, the kids were throwing darts all over the place. Nicole Budnik (hole # 14) and Kari Rosser (hole # 9) fired aces on day one. Rarely has the TJGT had aces in the same tournament let alone the same pairing as Nicole and Kari were in the same foursome when their aces occurred.
Several college coaches from the great state of Texas were in attendance watching the 116 player field with the Boys 12-18 playing 6,798 yards and the Girls 12-18 playing 5,768 yards in this 36-hole, Golfweek-ranked event.
In their last competitive rounds as TJGT combatants, Lamar Consolidated teammates go their separate ways with another 1-2 finish.
Katelyn McDougal changed her school colors from blue to red as she leaves Lamar Consolidated high school for the friendly walls of Lamar University, and once again pounced on her girls 16-18 division with an awesome 70-69 2 day score.
Katelyn’s high school teammate, and soon to be St. Edwards college golfer, Ryanne Haddow, fired a nice 73-76, to finish second.
On a personal note from TJGT Houston TD Coach Handley, “These two girls are exactly the kind of girls all of our youngsters should look up to. For four years, I have watched these two…
