This was the 54th year of the Missouri Junior Girls Championship! Our gracious host was the beautiful WingHaven Country Club during June 10-11th, 2014. The 36 hole stroke play event suffered from a severe storm passing through the area, shortening playing time during round one, but our juniors came out early the next day and completed the 36 hole event. They were great competitors who kept their smiles throughout the entire tournament!
