Our lead story highlights CEO Kris Jonasson, who retires after three decades of leading British Columbia Golf with vision, inclusivity, and a lasting impact on its reach, culture, and championships.
Among Kris’s key goals was delivering top-tier championships. This issue recaps Amy Lee’s successful B.C. Women’s Amateur title defence at Victoria GC and Zhehui Yu’s dominant B.C. Junior Girls win at Gorge Vale GC, where Yu opened with a nine-under 64, hitting all 18 greens in regulation.
The B.C. Junior Boys’ Championship is now underway at Quilchena G&CC (see live scoring HERE), as we recall past winners like Couples, Lepp, Taylor, and Roxburgh.
Also of note: B.C.'s Shelly Stouffer recently claimed the Irish Senior Women’s title and currently leads the R&A’s Women’s Senior Championship. (See standings HERE.)
