About This Event
The Georgia Junior PGA Championship — Girls is the official PGA of America section championship for junior girls competing in Georgia, awarding the section title and a direct path to the national stage. It is a three-round stroke play event held at The Chimneys Golf Course in Canton, GA from June 9–11, 2026. The section champion earns an automatic invitation to the Junior PGA Championship, one of the most recognized national junior titles in the game.
What Advancing Means
The Georgia section champion earns an automatic invitation to the 2026 Junior PGA Championship at Fields Ranch in Frisco, TX, July 28–31 — the 50th anniversary of a national championship whose past winners include Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, and Lexi Thompson. Competing at that level puts a junior golfer on a national stage that college coaches and the broader golf community actively follow.
Coach's Take
If your player is ready to compete in a multi-round stroke play format against the best junior girls in Georgia, this is exactly the kind of event that builds a résumé and opens doors — both to the national championship and to college recruiting conversations.
