Jaxon Lynn currently holds the lead for the Junior Boys Championship

No changes amongst the Junior & Juvenile Girls, as play for round two of the Alberta Junior & Juvenile Championship is suspended due to weather

De Winton, Alta. (Alberta Golf) – Round one of the 2016 Alberta Junior & Juvenile Championships is complete following an overnight suspension of play. However, round two found a suspension of play due to inclement weather. 

At this time, Jaxon Lynn leads the Junior Boys Championship, finishing his second round -5, 66, to bring him to a tournament total of -3. Lynn carded an impressive five birdies and eagle that contributed to his lead.

In second place, sitting three strokes behind the leader, Chris Horton will look to close the gap in tomorrow’s play.

Lethbridge’s Mason Harder currently leads the Juvenile Boys Championship. In round two, Harder shot +3, 74, with an impressive eagle on hole 10.

No female competitors made it through nine due to lightning forcing them off the course. As a result, there are no changes atop the Alberta Junior & Juvenile Girls Championship leader board.

On Thursday, July 14, the second round will resume at 7 a.m. Following round two, the Alberta Junior Boys Championship will be cut to low 60 and ties. The Alberta Junior Girls Championship final round and Alberta Junior Boys Championship third round will commence in a 1 p.m. crossover.
