The Hurricane Junior Golf Tour based out of Jacksonville, FL will make the trip to Clemmons, North Carolina. On November 9-10, the Tanglewood Golf Club will host the Winston-Salem Jr. Shootout. The tournament is open to boy and girl golfers between the ages of 11-18. There’s a lot up for grabs at Clemmons as well. Winners in boys 15-18, boys 11-14, and girls 15-18 will receive American Junior Golf Association Performance Stars to be used towards exemptions into AJGA events as long as field size requirements are met. In addition, winners in all divisions will receive an invite to the HJGT’s 2013 Tour Championship at Champions Gate in Florida. Top ten finishers will earn valuable points for end of the year honors, including the inaugural Hurricane Cup. Champions of each division will also receive $50 gift cards from Kikkor Golf. In addition to all of these rewards, players will also receive points toward the South Carolina Junior Golf Association and the Tarheel Youth Golf Association. The format for this event is a 36 hole stroke play tournament held over two days, Saturday, November 9 and Sunday, November 10. Registration for the event will commence at 8:00AM on Saturday. Both the first and second rounds will feature a single tee start from 9:00AM–12:00PM. Registration for members is $179 and non-members can register for $199. For membership information please refer to our website (www.hjgt.org/basic-membership/) Since the Championship course was opened in 1958, it has consistently ranked as one of the top public courses in the nation. This Robert Trent Jones layout, which has ninety-nine bunkers, was designed to test the best golfers in the world and fits Jones’s design philosophy of “easy bogey, hard par.” He believed that the long iron shot separated the championship golfer from the average golfer and created several holes with that in mind. This will truly be a test to our junior golfers.
