About This Event
The Kentucky Junior PGA Championship — Girls is the Kentucky PGA Section's premier junior championship, open to female junior golfers who meet section residency requirements. It is a two-day stroke play event that determines Kentucky's representative at the national level. Earning your spot here is a meaningful competitive milestone and a direct path to one of the top junior championships in the country.
What Advancing Means
The section champion earns an automatic invitation to the Junior PGA Championship at Fields Ranch in Frisco, TX, July 28–31, 2026 — the 50th anniversary of a national championship whose past winners include Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, and Lexi Thompson. That is the kind of stage and company that defines a junior career.
Coach's Take
If your daughter is serious about playing college golf, winning or competing well at a PGA Section championship is exactly the kind of result that shows up on a recruiting profile and gets a coach's attention.
