(June 17th-18th 2017)
On June 17th 2017 the Hurricane Junior Golf Tour traveled to Sacramento, California to host the Brooks Brother Open at Darkhorse at Darkhorse Golf Club. We would like to thank the Darkhorse Golf Club for allowing us to host this wonderful event at their facility. It was a warm weekend in Sacramento, and the course was setup well for some great scoring conditions. This led to some great golf and low rounds.
