WJGT Competes in Casper


On June 29th, 64 junior golfers from across the state met at Three Crowns Golf Club in Casper to vie for the WJGT Central Regional Stroke Play Title. High temperatures and low scores were the theme of the day on the challenging par 72 layout.

Emily Podlesny of Green River turned in an 18-hole score of 79 to take home the girl’s title. Two strokes behind at 81 was Bri Sweeny of Worland, followed by Emily Woodard of Cheyenne with a score of 85.

It took extra holes to decide the boy’s overall champion as Cameron Lindell and Brandon Metzger, both of Sheridan, finished the day tied at two over par 74. Lindell prevailed with a par on the first playoff hole.

WSGA Crowns First Champion of 2009


Olive Glenn Golf & Country Club was the site of the 33rd WSGA Match Play Championship. Low scores were the theme as eight players shot par 72 or better on Thursday's championship qualifying round. Defending champion, Gabe Maeir of Cody, paced the field with a round of 7-under 65 to grab medalist honors and the number one seed.

With wins over Barry King, Eddie Stewart and Morgan Splichal, Klinton Krieger of Cheyenne made his way to the championship final where he faced Clinton Boutelle of Cody. In a match that was all square through 16 holes, Krieger won the 17th and 18th for a 2-up victory. This was Krieger's second WSGA Championship to go along with his 2006 WSGA Junior Amateur Title.
