In mid-February a talented group of junior golfers competed in the 36-hole International Junior Golf Tour (IJGT) West Coast Series at Hiddenbrooke in Vallejo.
In the Boys 15-19 Division, Jim Coon of Orinda came out on top after an impressive final round score of 2-over-par 74 on Sunday, February 19. He combined that with a first round 79 to win by five strokes ahead of his nearest competitor.
The weather played a major factor in the outcome of the tournament. "Everyone has to play [those conditions] so just getting through each hole and getting the lowest score," said Coon.
