Hunting Hawk GC waived the white flag of defeat to the PKBGT this weekend. The event features a field of 35 players from the PKB Girls\u2019 Golf Tour, the nation\u2019s largest \u201cgirls\u2019 only\u201d junior tour with over 400 members and 94 alumni in the collegiate ranks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Shannon Brooks (Vienna, VA 2015) carded eight under par with a score of 64 to place first with 77 + 64 = 141. This score was not only a course record, but beat the existing PKBGT record by two strokes. When asked about her round, Brooks said, &#8220;I still can&#8217;t believe it. It&#8217;s exciting because I&#8217;ve placed second a bunch of times, so it&#8217;s nice to finally place first.&#8221; There was a tie for second place between Delaney Shah (North Potomac, MD 2016) with 72 + 74 = 146 and Lyberty Anderson (Chesterfield, VA 2014) with 69 + 77 = 146, but based on second day score, Shah placed second over Anderson.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It was down to the wire in the Futures Division with a sudden death playoff between Amber Liu (Vienna, VA 2016) with a 75 + 77 = 152 and Naomi Mitchell (Norfolk, VA 2018) 76 + 76 = 152. Mitchell made a smooth par to secure her first PKBGT victory. When asked about her victory, Mitchell said, &#8220;It&#8217;s my first win in three years. I didn&#8217;t come out with any expectations for this tournament and am happy with the win.&#8221; PKBGT newcomer, Allison Wong (Rockville, MD 2014), shot 81 + 77 = 158 to place third.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">PKBGT returns to action in two weeks with the PKBGT MASTERS on April 14-15 at Salem Glen Golf &amp; Country Club in Clemmons, NC. This is the first major of the year, bringing together the top players in the Southeast &amp; Mid-Atlantic. It should be an exciting &amp; challenging event.
