Bell National<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the small field, everyone had a reasonable chance to snag the spot into the 2o2o PKBGT Tournament of Champions. Yedam Lee<\/strong> (Lawrenceville, GA 2021) had other plans after her opening round 77 (+5), which included four birdies and gave her a four-shot overnight lead. Yedam followed R1 with an identical round two score of 77 to finish (+10) for the tournament. Yedam captured the NC Series Gate City Classic earlier this year. Lee’s best Bell finish occurred at the Peachtree Classic, where she finished T12.<\/p>\n

Two were tied atop the leaderboard after the first round with Caroline Hawkins<\/strong> (Columbia, SC 2026) and Emerson Elm<\/strong> (Suwanee, GA 2025), holding a slim overnight lead. Hawkins and Elm opened the Atlanta Girls Classic with rounds of 79 (+7). Elm struggled on day two while the Carolina girl excelled, firing an identical final round 79 (+7) to capture her maiden title by eight shots! Hawkins game has been trending upward for the past month and a half with two top 3 finishes on the Futures National circuit and a T28 finish at the Tour Championship. With the victory, Caroline receives an automatic invitation to the 2020 PKBGT Tournament of Champions hosted at Forest Creek Golf Club in early December.<\/p>\n

About the PKBGT<\/h2>\n

Founded in 2007 by Girls Golf of America, a non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization, as a local girls’ golf tour in the Triad region of North Carolina.\u00a0 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’s pace. The 2020 season will feature over 110 tournaments in 9 states on the East Coast, and with over 1,000 members, the PKBGT is the largest girl’s only Tour in the country.\u00a0 Learn more about the PKBGT at http:\/\/www.pkbgt.org\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n
