Junior Pro-Am

The Junior Pro-Am recently played at NRGC saw some remarkable results – with 2 professionals, Dan Seymour (NRGC) and Richard Campbell (West Berks) breaking the course record, with their 7 under-par rounds of 64. Another record was shattered on the day, and that was a team score of -25, which won the tournament. The winning team was led by NRGC Pro Nick Mitchell with Jim Purvis and juniors Max Nicholls and Ben Gilbert. Second team home, just two shots behind the leaders, was headed by European Senior Tour player, John Hoskison with Myra Baker, George Baker, Jack Unsworth. In third place, with a score of -18, was Steve Mitchell’s team (also NRGC) of Jon Miller, Chris Richardson and Luke Bannister. For the professionals, Dan Seymour and Richard Campbell were joint first, with Nigel Hart (NRGC) in third place with a 6 under par, 65 and Nick Mitchell’s 2 under par 69 was enough to give him fourth place. This tournament has been running for about 8 years, and is the only one locally that gives juniors a chance to play alongside professional golfers in this format.
