Future Champions Golf made its way out near Temecula for its Kids Tour Spring Series event at Welk Resort. The executive course offered exceptional greens with just the right amount of challenge and distance for our young competitors. The beautiful day displayed only a slight breeze which cooled down the players on this surprisingly hot day. Without further delay, let us continue onto the event recap.

The boys 11-14 division was the first to tee off and the first ones in to the scoring area. Jacob Paule shot 56(+2) and took home the championship award for his impressive display of golf. Second place was awarded to Jacob Zhang after shooting 63(+9). Finally, Chris Hanson shot 64(+10) on the day and was awarded the third place trophy.
