Welcome to the Wyoming Junior Golf Tour |
| The Wyoming State Golf Association is proud
to present the Wyoming Junior Golf Tour (WJGT).
The WJGT is a program designed to offer competitive
golf opportunities to boys and girls of various
ages and skill levels throughout the state
of Wyoming.
In addition to the Wyoming State Junior Amateur
Championship, the 2012 tournament schedule
will include six Regional Events.
Each Region will host one 18/36-hole event
between June 4th and August 9th.
The WJGT will use the Stableford Scoring System for the 7-9 and 10-12 age divisions in 2012. Stableford is a form of stroke play in which play is against a fixed score at each hole as below:
| Holes Played In: |
Points |
| Triple Bogey or Higher or No Score Returned |
0 |
| Double Bogey |
1 |
| Bogey |
2 |
| Par |
3 |
| Birdie |
4 |
| Eagle |
5 |
In Stableford the winner is the competitor who scores the highest number of points. The marker is responsible for marking only the gross number of strokes at each hole where the competitor’s score earns one or more points. (Rule 32-1b)
It is our hope that this will be a more player-friendly format for young and beginning golfers in particular as they will be allowed under the Rules of Golf to pick up after exceeding double-bogey on a hole. However, more advanced players will still return a stroke play score for each hole where points are earned, as is their responsibility under Rule 32-1b. |
| Online entries open at 9AM on Monday, April 30th. |
