Toyota Tour Cup at Coral Mountain Golf Club
May 22-23, 2021LA QUINTA, CA | Coral Mountain Golf Club hosted the Toyota Tour Cup continuing a wonderful longstanding relationship with the SCPGA Junior Tour. It is one of the favorite stops on tour every year and never disappoints.
It was a tight finish for both the Boys and the Girls Championship at Coral Mountain! Three boys were tied for the lead going into the final hole (Verwers, Rhoads, L. Kim). However, recent TTC winner Kasper Verwers nearly holed a chip for eagle on the final hole that led to a tap-in birdie taking the clubhouse lead at -6. Kim and Rhoads, both at -5, had chances at birdie to force a playoff but just narrowly missed the cup paving the way for Verwers’ second victory in as many starts.
Angela Heo fired an opening, bogey-free, -8, 64 to set a new women’s course record! Karen Tsuru was the nearest competitor also posting a solid round of 67. It was neck and neck down the stretch as just one stroke separated the two with only a few holes left to play. However, Heo would hold steady making birdies on 16 and 18 to post a final round E, 72 and take the title. Tsuru also posted a 72 and finshied in solo second. Kylie Chong carded a pair of -2, 70’s finishing at -4 taking solo third.
Congratulations Angela and Kasper!
