Venue Changes for Harmony Landing and Tour Championship
We were very disappointed to learn about the extension of the ban on youth competitions in the state of Kentucky. Having worked with the Kentucky PGA, it was the collective understanding that June 15 would be the return to youth sports. However, in the past week an updated mandate was published from the state of Kentucky that on June 15th, youth “practices” in some sports could resume but not “competitions.” Competitions will be allowed to return in some manner on June 29th for some sports.
It has always been our intention to comply with state mandates for the safety of our players and so that our events will continue to receive the recognition they do from our partners, the AJGA, Junior Golf Scoreboard, and others.
The Harmony Landing event June 23-24 and our Tour Championship June 26-28 cannot be postponed any longer as our 2020-2021 season starts June 29th.
The decision has been made to change venues for both events into states that will allow us to host these tournaments and keep the same dates.
All players that were in the field have been kept in the field. If the venue change does not work for your family, you will need to notify us via email of your withdrawal: staff@gwjuniortour.com
The tournament pages have been updated with tee times, facility details and status, and we have worked with our partner at the AJGA to ensure that the AJGA PBE status has been confirmed for both of the new venue changes. Please refer to these tournament pages as they will answer many of your questions.
The Harmony Landing event scheduled for June 23-24 , will now be played at Purdue University’s Kampen and Ackerman golf courses on the same date, June 23-24 in Lafayette, IN. (These golf courses share the same property)
The Boys 14-19 will be on the Kampen golf course Tournament Page
All Girls and Boys 13 & Under will be on the Ackerman golf course Tournament Page
The Tour Championship scheduled for June 26-28, will now be played at Miami University’s Hueston Woods and Indian Ridge golf courses on the same date, June 26-28 in Oxford, OH. (These golf courses are located 10 miles apart)
The Boys 14-19 will be on Hueston Woods golf course Tournament Page
All Girls and Boys 13 & Under will be on Indian Ridge golf course Tournament Page
We appreciate everyone’s patience as we work to continue to provide tournament golf and as many opportunities as possible for our players. We are excited that we will still be able to host these tournaments and provide a conclusion to the 2019-2020 season.
We do ask that communication, questions, or concerns, be sent in email form as it allows us to get to everyone in an efficient and timely fashion for our staff.
Thank you and have a great day,
-Alex Martin, Tour Director
