You head south of course. Golf pro, Sam Young, of the Shelburne Golf and Country Club lead his team of Junior golfers on their annual training week at the famed Pinehurst Golf Resort in Pinehurst North Carolina. This was the 17th annual trek to complete the Juniors Winter training program which is conducted at the Golflab at Vaughan Mills, during the weeks before they head South. The week was highlight by Alyssa Stoddart winning a coveted prize from coach Sam Young for breaking par and Kyle Johnston breaking par on the same day. Johnston missed the prize of breaking 70 by one shot. “This is the first time we've had both a girl and a boy break par on the same trip,” Young said. “Preforming at such a high level is not easy to do coming out of the frozen north in March.” Other notable performances were recorded by Jaymond Woods who scored an average 6.4 strokes – a round better than the previous year with more than half of his rounds in the 70s. Two rookies played outstanding golf. Twelve year-old Morgan Rutledge had never broken 100, but nine of her ten rounds were under 100 and she broke 90, four times. Fellow rookie, 14 year-old Maggie Campbell had shot under 100 only once previously. During this trip she broke 100 four times with a highlight 90 that included two triple bogies and one double. Coach Young predicts a solid future for both players. Other trip highlights include a 77 by Ranen Oomen-Danckert. Ranen's ten year-old brother Keifer shot 92 twice during the trip.
