The Peggy Kirk Bell Girls\u2019 Golf Tour<\/a> had the weekend off on the National Series<\/a> after excessive rainfall canceled the <\/span>River Run Girls Classic<\/b> in Davidson, NC. The <\/span>Central Florida Series competed at<\/b> River Hills Country Club<\/b> in Valrico, FL on Saturday. <\/span><\/p>\n

2019 River Run Girls Classic<\/b><\/h2>\n

On Saturday, rain fell from dawn until dusk in North Carolina. Gloomy grey clouds parked over a majority of the state including Davidson, NC where the National Series was set to play the inaugural River Run Girls Classic. <\/span><\/p>\n

Though the PKBGT often battles through the elements, a full day of consistent rain piled on top of the previously heavy accumulation of rainfall through the latter portion of the week left the course at Davidson Country Club unplayable. After consultation with the golf course superintendent, the Tour was forced to cancel the weekend\u2019s event. The course is working with the Tour to find a possible date to reschedule the tournament. <\/span><\/p>\n

Central Florida Series at River Hills Country Club <\/b><\/h2>\n

Mother Nature rained on the PKBGT parade in North Carolina, but in Valrico, FL the sun was blazing and puffy white clouds blanketed the blue skies. On Saturday, February 23, the PKBGT played the <\/span>Central Florida Series at River Hills Country Club<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

Winning the event with a score of 82 (+10), <\/span>Alyssa Mixon <\/b>(Wesley Chapel, FL 2023) came out victorious in a tiebreaker playoff to win the Futures Division. <\/span>Bretton Mackiewicz <\/b>(Longwood, FL 2025) won the Discovery Division after shooting a 39 (+3), also winning a tiebreaker playoff to claim the win. <\/span><\/p>\n

PKBGT Performance Index<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

The National Order of Merit<\/a> remained the same following the cancellation of the River Run Girls Classic. On the other hand, there were a few significant jumps in the PKBGT Performance Index. <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Madeline Ananthasane <\/b>(Auburn, GA 2020), who earned last week\u2019s #MoverOfTheWeek, takes home the honors for the second consecutive week. Ananthasane jumped 66 spots on the Performance Index and broke into the top 25. Now ranked 11th, she followed up a T4 finish at the 2019 Orange Whip Classic by winning the 2019 RocketTour Players Championship. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kimberly Shen <\/b>(Johns Creek, GA 2022) moved up 10 spots in 31st on the Performance Index. Shen played the reverse of Ananthasane, following a win at the 2019 Orange Whip Classic with a T4 finish at the 2019 RocketTour Players Championship. <\/span><\/p>\n

    About the PKBGT<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Founded in 2007 by the Triad Youth Golf Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization, as a local girls\u2019 golf tour in the Triad region of North Carolina, the tour began as a simple concept: create more effective competitive playing opportunities for girls. By utilizing innovative yardage-based divisions instead of the traditional age-based format, the tour focused on developing tournament experience at the player\u2019s pace. The 2019 season will feature over 90 tournaments in 9 states on the East Coast and with over 900 members, the PKBGT is the largest girl\u2019s only tour in the country. \u00a0Learn more about the PKBGT at <\/span>http:\/\/www.pkbgt.org\/<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
