The NFJG TOUR officially kicked off it's 2021-2022 season on October 24th with the "OPENER" at St. Johns Golf Course. Ponte Vedra's Nancy Cox lead the field of 80 players by firing a -3 under par round of 68 (33-35). Cox would have four birdies on the day to post her career low round. She would claim the "Overall" and the "Elite Tour Girls" Gold Medal and a Florida Junior Tour Exemption. Fleming Islands Tyler Mawhinney would lead the boys with an even par round of 71 after defeating Amelia Islands Tanner Millar (71) and St. Johns Tommy Piper (71) in an exciting playoff.

Mawhinney would have six birdies during the round accompanied with some up and down holes. He would also take home the NFJGTOUR Gold and one FJT Exemption.

At the 2-day NORTH FLORIDA JUNIOR PLAYER TOUR season opener at the World Golf Village, "The King and Bear Open" Tyler Mawhinney would carryover his fine play firing a -4 par 68 in the opening round. In round two Mawhinney would post a two over par round of 74 to win the 36-hole tournament. He would capture the overall all and the Elite Tour Boys honors. Mawhinney would put into the record books one eagle and 10 birdies to dethrone the 2021 defending champion Moses Compaan. Compaan would post a -2 under par round of 70 in his final round in an effort to make up a seven stroke deficit after round one, but it would not be enough to capture the title as repeat champion.

Next up is the "The National" at Amelia National Country Club on Sunday, November 14, 2021. Check out the NFJGTOUR Tournament Schedule for a tournament near you.

NFJGF provides local junior golfers, ages 7-19, an opportunity to be a member of the organization which will allow them to play in competitive tournaments that are affordable, professional and are consistent with the USGA Rules of Golf and the Conditions of Competition. The tournaments and events provide an opportunity for junior golfers to build a solid foundation, gain tournament experience and compete among their peers for the love of the game. The experience will help prepare junior golfers, if they so desire, to compete in any State or National event. NFJGF will also promote, fund and manage a scholarship fund. NFJGF will strive to provide scholarships to junior golfers that have participated as a member, uphold the values of the organization and pursue a degree at an accredited college or university.

The values governing NFJGF will be to operate the organization and impact young people with integrity, honesty and fairness. We will promote the values of self esteem and pride in our events, with our members, among each other and the community. Our decisions will be made with an objective, fact-based thought process. We will work together to nurture independent thinking which fosters taking responsibility for your actions.

To motivate our younger generation into loving the sport of golf by providing and financially supporting the NFJGTOUR, the North Florida Middle School Golf Program for all schools including Clay, Duval, Nassau, St. Johns and other counties. In doing so we will prepare our junior golfers for competition in high school golf, college golf, higher level golf opportunities (state and national) and perhaps achieve the biggest dreams of all, the LPGA or PGA TOUR's.

Join us along our journey while we grow our future.
