Starting in 2021, the GolfWeek Jr Tour established elite events

 

These events are intended to have stronger strength of fields by establishing criteria for acceptance into the field and do not use a first, come first serve entry system.  

​

The elite events have specific criteria for how players will be accepted

All players who are interested in competing should register before the field selection date

1) Winners of ANY past GolfWeek Junior Tour events in the Boys 14-15, Boys 16-19, and Girls 15-19 divisions

- Players with a win (in these age divisions only), are guaranteed a position in the field 
 

- Once all former winners are accepted into the field remaining spots in the field will be filled with the next criteria



2) GolfWeek Jr Tour Player of the Year point standings

- Boys will be accepted in the following order 

    Boys 16-19 Player of the Year rankings 1st - 20th
