The 2012 Application will open on June 25
As my career in tournament golf winds down, I have had time to reflect on my start in the game at the Country Club of Charleston. I was extremely fortunate to be a part of a great junior program, and to have a membership that strongly supported junior golf and our efforts to learn the game. My time there was the platform I needed to have a successful amateur and professional career, and more importantly, a lifelong love of the game.
I would like to pass on this support by becoming involved, along with the South Carolina Junior Golf Association. Hart Brown has run this tournament for many years, and we want to help him turn this tournament into a national invitational and bring it to the status of the Azalea. Our ultimate goal is to have a 54 hole event of 40 boys and 40 girls from the junior national rankings. The tournament has already been recognized by the AJGA in their Performance Based Entry System for this year. It will be a wonderful way to showcase our state, and to help local junior golfers achieve national experience and exposure. I hope that you can be a part of the 2012 Championship.
Sincerely,
Beth Daniel
The Country Club of Charleston is the home course of the event and has a tremendous history of talented membership that includes Masters Champion Henry Picard, storied amateur Frank Ford, Beth Daniel, and many others that have gone on to success in the game. Their support of amateur and junior golf is second to none in South Carolina.
