2023 World Junior Girls Championship

A Canadian Triumph

Team Canada won its first World Junior Girls Championship team title at the 2023 playing at Brampton Golf Club. Lead by Golf Canada assistant coach Jeff MacDonald, Team Canada 1 was comprised of Vanessa Borovilos, Vanessa Zhang and Anna Huang. Canada emerged from a tightly packed leaderboard during a blustery final round to edge the field by one stroke and bring the trophy back to home soil.

Vodickova Dazzles

The Czech Republic’s Denisa Vodickova finished four strokes clear of the field to win the 2023 World Junior Girls Championship’s individual title. Vodickova jumped into the lead after the third round, when she tied the BGC women’s competitive course record with a five-under-par 66. The record was previously set by Canadian golf superstar Brooke Henderson during the 2014 playing of the Ontario Women’s Amateur Championship.
