57th CGA JUNIOR CHAMPIONSHIP AT COLLETON RIVER PLANTATION SHOULD BE A WIDE-OPEN TOURNAMENT
WEST END, NC
— There will be no clear-cut favorite when the 57th Junior Championship of the Carolinas Golf Association is played on the Dye Course at Colleton River Plantation in Bluffton, SC, July 25-27.Vince Hatfield of Greenwood, SC, who won the title in 2004 and 2005, and George Bryan IV of Chapin, SC, last year’s runnerup, won’t be in the field this year. Nor will the next four finishers from the 2005 event.
Thus, possible contenders for the 2006 crown might include David Gies of Charlotte and Austin Parks of Mount Pleasant, SC, who tied for seventh a year ago at Greensboro Country Club’s Irving Park course. Perhaps it will be North Carolina Junior titlist Will Collins of Salisbury or South Carolina Junior Match Play champ Clint Tolleson of Spartanburg who will add the Carolinas Junior title to their trophy cases. Or maybe the new champion will be Ryan Davis of Conway, NC, whose 68 led the Carolinas Junior qualifier at Croasdaile CC in Durham or John Bridwell of Greer, SC, and Ross Tooley of Mt. Pleasant, SC, whose 68s tied for medalist honors in the qualifier at the CC of Orangeburg.
This is the first time Colleton River Plantation has hosted a Carolinas Golf Association championship. The par-72 layout will play at 6,696 yards for the Boys 14-15 and 16-18 age divisions, at 5,518 yards for the Boys 12-13 age bracket and 5,105 yards for Boys ages 11 and under.
The Carolinas Junior attracted a total of 266 entries this year
– 226 in the 14-18 age divisions, 35 in the 12-13 bracket and 5 in the 11 and under category.For more information about the 57th Carolinas Junior Championship at Colleton River Plantation and other Carolinas Golf Association events, visit the Championship Home Page online at
