Junior Golf Tours In South Florida?

[right handed phil mickelson]

I'm 16 and a sophomore in high school. I think it's about time I get pretty serious about getting recognized by colleges so I won't have to pay for 4 years of 'learning'. My question is, does anyone know of any good tours in the SOUTH Florida area that will get me pretty good recognition?

The only one I know of so far is the Florida Junior Tour, but their events are held up in Central Florida.

Thanks for your replies.

Not 100% sure if this is what your looking for but http://www.gcjgf.org/ is a southern golf tour. Not even sure on how competitive it is, but no harm in taking a look and seeing if it's right for you.

Best of Luck to You!

Also look at Hurricane Golf Tour, not many events in your area though. With your hcap you should look at FCWT, behind AJGA events I think college scouts look at this tour pretty good. One current PGA touring pro (forgot his name) really supports it. My 13 yr old plays in the GTJGA (Greater Tampa Junior Golf Assoc.), we plan on doing some Premier Junior Tour events and a few FCWT events next year. Ryuji Imada played in the GTJGA, and we get some Leadbetter Academy and Saddlebrook Academy players often playing in it. Might want to give the GTJGA a look, it's $50 for year membership and the 18 hole tournaments are only $30...trophies, lunch,etc.. Good competiton in your age group, winner is usually low 70's or a stroke or 2 under par, play top notch courses in the Tampa area.
