The TJGT Winstar Junior Championship was played November 12th-13th, 2011 at the Winstar Resort Golf Course in Thackerville, OK.
Players from Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas teed it up in cool (45-65* each day) and windy (gusts up to 40 mph both days) weather with the Boys 15-18 playing 6,709 yards; the Boys 12-14 playing 6,299 yards; and all Girls 12-18 playing 5,842 yards in this 36-hole, nationally-ranked event.
Even though the event was played on a great golf course in extreme conditions, overall it was a very difficult tournament for the players with a constant battle against the windy conditions. Winstar is a unique place with tons of recreation for everyone in the family ranging from a world-class Casino to the newly added Academy at the course for lessons for golfers of all ages and abilities.
The first day was a battle with Ben Baxter leading the field (15-18 Boys) with a 75. The boys 12-14 Casey Rile posted a 76, while Mark Reppe, Drew Jones following with a pair of 78’s. In the girls race Binny Lee recorded a 78, followed by Charter Lawson and Julia Bazaldua at 79.
