APGC Junior Championships Archive
The APGC Junior Championships are the Asia-Pacific’s premier team and individual championship for boys and girls. Players who are 17 years or under as of August 30 each year are eligible to participate. The winner of the boys’ and girls’ individual competitions receive an exemption to play in a professional tournament in the region. Each APGC member organisation is able to enter a maximum of two teams of two players (one male and one female), with the exception of the hosts, who are allowed to enter three teams. The aggregate gross score of both players will be the team’s score. Lowest teams scores after 54 holes will be recognised as team champions. Previously, teams played fourballs on the first day, foursomes on the second day and singles on the third day with combined scores counting for each team’s total. Initially sponsored by the Mitsubishi Corporation when inaugurated in 2015, the APGC Junior Championships have announced the potential of many future stars. Among the notables who participated during their formative golfing years are Japanese Keita Nakajima, Ryo Hisatsune, Yuka Yasuda, Nasa Hataoka and Tsubasa Kajitani, Australians Harrison Crowe and Grace Kim, Thailand’s Denwit Boriboonsub and Natthakritta Vongtaveelap and China’s Yin Xiaowen. Nakajima and Crowe both went on to win the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship before joining the ranks of the professionals, while Yasuda won the second edition of the Women’s Amateur Asia-Pacific in 2019 and Natthakritta was twice a runner-up.
