Junior Golf Scoreboard
Since 1998 we've been involved with the world of competitive junior golf, compiling information we felt was useful to parents, players and others interested in the sport.

Through your e- mails and phone calls we have received hundreds of questions, comments and requests. Many of these, along with our opinions and our purpose of growing the sport, are the basis for News & Views. We hope you'll find it informative. Let us know.

“Junior golfers from across the country will get a chance to play some terrific venues during the 2013 PGA Junior Series, as well as have a chance to qualify for the Junior PGA Championship, the summer’s premier junior championship,” said PGA of America President Ted Bishop.

All nine PGA Junior Series events will serve as Junior PGA Championship qualifiers, with the 16-18 boys’ division winner and the overall girls’ champion earning a spot in the prestigious Championship.

Each event will feature 54-hole (three-day) competitions, in addition to The PGA’s 72-hole flagship junior event, the 38th Junior PGA Championship presented by Under Armour and Hotel Fitness.

Each series event will feature a field of up 156 players. The event fields are based on playing ability and are not first-come, first-served.
