The TJGT Traditions Invitational
The Texas Junior Golf Tour held its Traditions Invitational at Texas A & M on Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 1st and 2nd. The windy and overcast conditions at the difficult Traditions course challenged these elite junior golfers but it did not keep the college coaches away with a minimum of twelve college coaches being seen in attendance at this nationally ranked event. The boys were playing just over 7000 yards and the girls were playing at 6000 yards on the Nicklaus-designed course. Small greens and several ravines made the Traditions one of the season’s most challenging layouts. The highlight of the weekend could have very well been the banquet on Saturday night at the Zone Club overlooking Kyle Field. Winner of the 1981 British Open and PGA Tour Player of the Year that same year, Bill Rogers was the guest speaker and to sum up the theme of what he had to share, “there’s nothing that cannot be overcome in golf by working harder and playing better, and remember, it’s only a game.”
To top off the evening every player in the field received the latest in Bluetooth technology getting the smallest, lightest Bluetooth headset on the market, the Samsung WEP 2000, courtesy of Adil Adi, President of WorldLink Incorporated...
