About This Event

This is a meaningful step in any junior's competitive season, with the section champion earning a direct invitation to compete at the national level. Earning your way to a national PGA championship is a real achievement that stands out on any golf resume.
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 field and stage that defines a junior career.
Coach's Take
