The 91st Ontario Junior Girls’ Amateur Championship is set to take centre stage at Maple City Country Club in Chatham, Ontario, from July 27-30, as 90 of the province’s top junior female golfers compete over 72 holes for one of Ontario’s most historic titles.
The event’s legacy is reflected in the accomplishments of former competitors such as World Golf Hall of Famer Marlene Stewart Streit, LPGA legend Sandra Post, and Olympians Brooke Henderson and Alena Sharp.
A Challenging Test at Maple City Country Club
Situated alongside the Thames River, the course at Maple City Country Club will provide a demanding examination of every player’s game. The championship layout rewards precision, and strategic course management.
“Maple City Country Club is an excellent championship test because it rewards complete golfers”, says Mason Cowan, Tournament Director. “There are a lot of holes at Maple City that demand a good tee shot. The course borders the Thames River, which provides undulating fairways that players will have to navigate off the tee. Those same slopes also influence the greens, creating subtle breaks that require players to stay focused and pay close attention to every putt.”
With a demanding layout and four rounds of championship golf ahead, consistency from tee to green will be essential.
