Twenty plus girls traveled to the Shenandoah Valley event, even St. Catherine\u2019s, Ontario Canada was represented in the mix. Seeking refuge in the Mountain\u2019s from the week\u2019s long storms, the conditions were damp, but refreshing. Golf action for the weekend featured Bryana Nguyen from Columbia, MD who made up a three shot deficit in the final round to win by one stroke ( 72 \u2013 71 \u2013 143) over round 1 leader Shannon Brooks of Vienna, VA ( 69-75\u2014144).<\/p>\n<p>Heading into Sunday, Nguyen found herself trailing by three strokes to Shannon Brooks , of Vienna Virginia who posted a fantastic first round of 69. Most of us would head into the final round with one thought in mind \u201cattack.\u201d However, the 2011 Bell Division Order of Merit Champion had a different approach \u201cI wanted to make a lot of pars and if I made some putts the birdies would follow,\u201d stated Nguyen after her round. The birdies certainly came at the right time as Nguyen birdied two of her last five holes including one on eighteen that bested Brooks\u2019 par handing Nguyen the narrow one shot victory.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was nice to win again! Shannon is a great player and played solid this week, but I am happy that I was able to make the birdie on eighteen. It was a great pressure situation achievement that I will be able to remember for a long time, \u201cstated Nguyen.<\/p>\n<p>Shannon Brooks final round efforts were strong given the conditions, but her outstanding first round came would not be enough to give her the distance needed to close this one on Nguyen.<\/p>\n<p>Following the two were: third place Emily Stinson from Charlotte, North Carolina of 78-76 \u2013144, Jessica Merrill of Reston Virginia comes in fourth place with consistent scores of 79 -79 \u2014158,\u00a0 Jordan McKelvin of Westminster, MD in fifth place through a scorecard playoff with Kimberly Mitchell, posting scores of 78-81\u2014158.<\/p>\n<p>The PKB tour would like to extend a special thanks to all the girls who participated in the event this weekend and the Shenandoah Valley GC staff, truly making the Virginia Classic at Shenandoah Valley an event to remember.<\/p>\n<p>For more information or questions about the tour please visit us online at PKBGT.org or call us directly at (336)373-4630.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/tygf.org\/girlstour\/tournaments_results.php\">Final Results<\/a><\/p>\n<table width=\"680\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"120\" valign=\"top\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shenandoahvalleygolfclub.com\/\" target=\"new\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/tygf.org\/courses\/shenandoah.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Shenandoah Valley GC\" width=\"100\" height=\"120\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><strong>September 24 &amp; 25th (Sat-Sun)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>PKBGT Fall Preview Virginia Classic<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>presented by Triad Youth Golf Foundation<\/em><br \/>\n@ Shenandoah Valley GC<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tygf.org\/girlstour\/2011\/11event22_info.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/tygf.org\/icons\/icon_info.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Information\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tygf.org\/girlstour\/yardages\/shenandoah.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/tygf.org\/icons\/icon_yardages.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Yardages\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tygf.org\/girlstour\/2011\/11event22_field.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/tygf.org\/icons\/icon_field.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Field\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nguyen captures Peggy Kirk Bell Virginia Classic Nguyen comes from behind to claim title Shenandoah Valley, Va. &#8212; The Peggy Kirk Bell Girls Golf Tour, traveled to Shenandoah Valley Golf Club this weekend to host the Virginia Classic.
