Our Mission
Making the Game Better for All Ages
The Southern California PGA Junior Tour’s mission is to create learning and playing opportunities for individuals of all ages and skill levels throughout Southern California. We aim to utilize golf as a vehicle to instill values such as integrity, honor, and patience. The SCPGA Junior Tour strives to foster and develop these values that will positively impact our member’s character on and off the golf course.
Established in 1948, the Southern California PGA now hosts one of the largest and most respected junior golf programs in the country. The SCPGA Junior Tour is a three-tiered program featuring the Toyota Tour Cup, the Players Tour and the Junior Development Tour. Together, these three tours administer over 290 tournaments annually for kids of all ages and skill levels. These events provide playing opportunities throughout Southern California, many of which are hosted by PGA facilities. The Junior Tour boasts countless alumni including Tiger Woods, Rickie Fowler, Lizette Salas, Charlie Wi, Brendan Steele, Danielle Kang, Jennifer Johnson, John Cook, Patrick Cantlay and many more.

Alona Avery and Luciano Conlan withstand the desert heat to claim victory! Avery posted a final round 66 to just edge out Wilson by a single stroke! Jude Lee fired a closing 69 to claim solo third. It was a similar story for the boys as Luciano Conlan posted the tournament low 64 finishing at -10 for the come-from-behind victory! Ryan Abuan almost matched Conlan with a 65 to take solo second at -8 while Leo Cheng followed his opening 67 with another solid round of 68 to take solo third.

This week on #WeAreSoCalPGA we explore the @pgatour and their affiliated tours! You may not know that most PGA TOUR players rely on a PGA Professional to fine-tune their swing and provide mental preparation before tournaments. For example, 2020 PGA Championship winner and #SCPGAJuniorTourAlum Collin Morikawa has been under the tutelage of Rick Sessinghaus, PGA since he was an 8 year-old junior golfer!
Hot temperatures and hot scores this weekend in beautiful San Marcos! A special thank you to Troy Ferguson and all the wonderful staff at Twin Oaks Golf Course for hosting us again!
It was a tight finish for the girls, leading to a 3-way playoff at -3 between first round leader Alice Zhao, who shot the low round of the tournament 68, Angelina Huang, and Alyson Sor, who came from 3 back with a solid 70 today. Alyson birdied the 2nd playoff hole to earn her 2nd TTC win in the past 2 weeks! Congrats to the girls for their stellar play!
The first round for the boys was highlighted by two 66's from rising freshman Jay Leng Jr. and San Diego native Michael Ma. They finished in 2nd and 3rd shooting -7 and -6, respectively, but it was Steven Deutsch who earned the 2 shot victory after going -6 in his last 6 holes to shoot a final round 63 (!!!) to complete the four-shot comeback! Great playing to Steven and all the boys this week!
A special thank you to our partners Toyota and Taylormade for their continued support!
Swipe to see Alyson’s birdie putt on the 2nd playoff hole to secure the win!
