The Nanton Junior Open,,,,aka the Last Chance Saloon!
One of the charter members of the Tour, the Nanton Junior Open has traditionally been the last 'regular season' event on each year's Tour schedule, providing the kids one last opportunity to get in a tournament before school starts, and to maybe earn a spot in next week's Tour Championship at Wolf Creek.
Zak Griffiths of Red Deer, playing out of Lacombe this year, fired an even-par 71 today to capture the junior boys' title. Brennan Swanson, 14, of Harvest Hills, was only one stroke back in solo second at 72. Griffiths ended up three shots clear of Derek Rucki of Lakeside Greens in Chestermere whose 74 was good for third place. Ian Lauzon of Calgary GCC, Jason Thiels of Olds, and Mac Keats of Bearspaw tied for fourth overall another shot back at 75. Rucki and Lauzon earned spots in the field for Wolf Creek, and will be joined by Matthew Williams of Pinebrook (82) from the flight for boys born in 1994 and later, and Wild Card qualifiers Gerald Slade (76) of Calgary GCC and Christian Guyette (79) of Glencoe.
Pinebrook's Evann Parker shot 79 in the junior girls' division and was 5 shots ahead of runner-up Allison Cronkwright of Priddis Greens. Both players will be in the field at Wolf Creek by virtue of their efforts today.
On to Wolf Creek!
