Bishop makes it a sweep at the BC Juvenile Boys Championships

Coming off his victory at the BC Junior Boys Championship in Kelowna only two weeks ago Junior Golf Victoria (JGV) member (and former Little Vike) Willy Bishop fired 66 and 67 in the final two rounds to take the BC Juvenile title by four strokes. Four other JGV members finished in the top 12. Shu Yamamoto shot an even par 70 in the second round and teamed with Niklas Jaakkola to win the best ball title.

In the Junior Girls competition, JGV member Sonja Tang finished a strong 9th. Sonja is off to UBC next year where she will be playing for the Thunderbirds Golf Team. JGV member Cindy Koira, who finished second in last year’s Provincial Junior, finished what was for her a disappointing 12th.

Both events were held simultaneously at the Cowichan Golf Club in Duncan.

Congratulations to all for what we hope was a fun week (despite the mosquitoes). Full leaderboard results can be found here: https://golfcanada.bluegolf.com/bluegolf/rcga20/event/rcga20893/contest/21/leaderboard.htm.
