A COVID-19 Update from Executive Director, Thomas Hutton, PGA
July 8, 2026 •Blake Davis
We are in uncharted territory. Updates around this virus change daily and the STPGA would like to make an official announcement around the STPGA Junior Golf program. As we stated from the beginning, the safety and well-being of our staff, junior golfers, and spectators are our top priorities.
The STPGA has canceled all junior golf events between today, March 17, 2020 and April 12, 2020. All players in these events over the next three weeks will be canceled and issued refunds within the next 24 hours. This includes Little Linksters, Junior Links, Junior Tour, and Srixon Prestige Tour events.
It is our goal to conduct all events starting on Saturday, April 18 and continue into our Spring Series Championship the following week. The STPGA will send future announcements on new events that may take place during the weekend of April 18-19 or into the month of May.
Our goal remains to use the Spring Series Points List for invitations into the Spring Series Championship but additional updates may take place due to a large number of tournaments being canceled.
We encourage all parents and junior golfers to follow us on social media during these weeks for updates, other unique posts, and golf tips!
Thank you very much for your time and stay safe.
Thomas Hutton, PGA
Executive Director

This marquee event, now in its third year, has quickly become a can't-miss opportunity to watch the strongest field of STPGA Junior Golfers that compete on the Srixon Prestige Tour!
San Antonio, TX (July 13-14, 2026) – Despite the Sunshine and Swing Challenge living up to only half of its name, junior golfers battled through the weather at Hill Country Golf Club in San Antonio for two days of outstanding competition. A talented field showcased resilience, determination, and impressive play in the pursuit of championship titles. In addition to the champions, four players secured the final spots in the 2026 The Insperity Tour Championship for the Srixon Prestige Tour through the Last Chance Qualifier during Round 1. Fletcher Whiting, Myles Malek, Ava Frazier, and Addison McCullough earned invitations with strong performances, punching their tickets to the season-ending championship and completing the Tour Championship field.
