SC Junior Team Takes Big Lead on First Day
The pristine setting at The Reserve at Lake Keowee Club in Sunset, SC was the venue for the 34th Annual GA-SC Junior Team Matches. The junior squad from South Carolina took a stronghold on day one with an overall four point lead of 6-2 over the juniors from Georgia.
The format is singles match play with one point available per match. If matches are tied at the end of 18 holes, each player receives half of a point. It should be noted that of all 16 participants, only Stephen Behr of Florence, SC has previously played in the matches back in 2007.
The Junior Championship is one of 19 SCGA statewide championships, 80 one-day contests, nine USGA qualifiers, eight 40-plus tournaments and five special events conducted by the SCGA. Results, schedules and applications may be accessed via the Internet at www.scgolf.org.
