C ody Carroll TOPS Field

Shoots 71 and records two Eagles

When asked why he played and once again is playing on the NFJG TOUR? Cody Carroll said" Playing NFJG events is a great way to maintain your competitive edge through competing in the 1-day and 2-day events. Jacksonville is one of the most competitive junior golf cities in the country and the access to great golf courses and competition for relatively cheap is something to take advantage of."

Cody will compete in the Greater Jacksonville Junior Championship at Eagle Harbor Golf Club as well as some one day events before he reports to UNF to start his college ventures. Cody won the 2018 FJT Major at Don Veller shooting 8-under par in the 54-hole event. Cody was the 2016-2017 FHSAA State Champion and a four time NFJG TOUR Web.com Junior Players Tour Champion. Cody's resume also includes 12 top-3 finishes in FJT events and five top-5 finishes in AJGA events.

Fernandina Open

Amelia River Golf Club

June 3, 2018

 

Great job to everyone who participated in the first ever “ Fernandina Open”. 

This one day event held at Amelia River Golf Course was truly a huge success. The course is a player favorite and I know many were disappointed they already had other tournament and personal plans set when I announced the event on short notice. With the “ Public Trust Invitational” postponed until October a void was created and I felt the need to fill the void with a short notice event at beautiful Amelia Island. I’m glad I did! Richard Vermut wrote “Great event this past weekend. Amelia River is a fun course.” Richard hit the nail right on the head. Golf is supposed to be fun, but there are those courses that just beat you up hole after hole, sucking your fun energy out of your system. Amelia River gives you good feels all the way around the course, so thanks for playing. One thing for sure the feel of weather certainly was about 40-60 degrees warmer, which got the staff talking. We’ve played Amelia River for the past five years (normally January - February) and only once was it above 45 degrees, so it was nice to see the course when it was green and warm.
