Some Richmond players will be among the favourites when the B.C. Juvenile Golf Championships tee off next week at the Princeton Golf Club.
Diego San Pedro, who is fresh off winning a silver medal at B.C. Summer Games, will be looking to dethrone defending champion Trevor Yu of Vancouver. Also expected to be in the title hunt is Chris Crisologo, a third place finisher at the recent B.C. Junior Boys Championship.
On the girls side, Janet Zhang is listed as one of the main contenders.
Both the Boys' and Girls' Championships will be 54-hole stroke play competitions, starting on Tuesday. The Boys' features a cut to the low 60 players and ties following 36 holes. Due to a limited field, no cut will occur after 36 holes for the Girls'. During rounds one and two, the zone and club team competitions will be contested.
Featuring fairways lined with Ponderosa Pines, Princeton Golf Club will play as a par-73 5,643 yard course for the Girls' Championship compared to a par-72 6,506 yard course for the Boys' Championship.
