The summer golf season is coming to a close for Estevan's Jayden Dudas, but he's still racking up the wins and good performances.
Dudas, who golfs out of TS&M Woodlawn Golf Club, last week won the juvenile division of the the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour's 2017 MJT/CPGA of Saskatchewan Junior Championship presented by Ilta Grain. His two day score of 84-74-158 at Dakota Dunes in Saskatoon was good for the one stroke win over Saskatoon's Josh Nagy.
The 14-year-old Dudas improved his back nine from a 45 to a 36 in the second day of the tournament, cementing his second win on the tour this year, which is all the more impressive as he's the youngest golfer in his division.
Jace Carlisle, also from Woodlawn, placed fifth in the juvenile boys event with an 83-80-163 over the two days. Reagan Robinson was 11th (89-81-170), Jean-Luc Dupuis was 15th (88-86-174), and Logan Chernoff was 20th (98-88-186).
In the bantam boys division, Drew Fenwick was fourth (84-85-169) and Hudson Chernoff placed 15th (92-95-187). Ryan Chernoff tied for second in the peewee boys division with 89-87-176.
The win gives him first place in the Order of Merit standings for the province in juvenile boys.
It was also good news for the Amanda Minchin Golf Academy on the tour, as they collected the highest amount of points in the week's events. Dudas, Ryan Chernoff, Fenwick and Carlisle collected 1,487.5 points for the event, beating the Jason Schneider Golf team from Wildwood with 1,129.17.
