The 2019 Maryland State Junior Girls Championship was held on June 17 and June 18 at Green Spring Valley Hunt Club in Owings Mills. The golf course was in spectacular shape and the players had two days of perfect weather, despite a forecast of possible afternoon thunderstorms.
The first day began with our 9-Hole contestant, Tatyana Smith leading off and shooting a great score of 50! On the second day, 11 year old Julia Hua made a great birdie by holing out from a bunker on Hole #5. But it is fair to say, that the play of our champion was the top highlight. Sophie Simon shot under par both days (67-70–137) which included nine birdies and one eagle!
