Good Evening Players, Parents, & Family Friends,


Even amid the roar of the Super Bowl and the thrill of the Olympics, the Srixon Prestige Tour refuses to be outshined, standing tall as February’s ultimate showstopper.


Srixon Prestige Tour Champions - February

The Srixon Prestige Tour launched into February in thrilling fashion, teeing off at Legacy Hills Golf Club for the ATX Showcase — and the fireworks started immediately. Beckett McLaughlin of Austin, TX set the tone early, firing under par in both rounds, including a sizzling 5-under 67 in Round 2 to capture the Boys 11–14 title in style. Not to be outdone, Hudson Burell of New Braunfels, TX stormed back from a two-shot deficit with a clutch second-round 67 to secure his first Boys 15–18 victory of the season. On the girls’ side, Lora Kim of Katy, TX took command with a dominant five-shot lead after Round 1 and never let up, earning her first Girls 11–18 championship.

The action only intensified when the Tour headed east to Houston for the
Battle in the Big City at Gus Wortham Park Golf Course. Conrad Holzman of Houston, TX delivered a commanding performance, cruising to a seven-shot win in the Boys 11–14 division. Daniel Trousdale of Tomball, TX electrified the field in the Boys 15–18 championship, catching absolute fire on the back nine of Round 2 with a bogey-free 30 to seal the victory. Kat Janda of Friendswood, TX showed remarkable consistency, posting back-to-back rounds of 77 to earn her first career Girls 11–18 win.

The Tour stayed hot in Houston for the
Winter Showdown at Panorama Golf Club. Beckett McLaughlin of Austin, TX continued his incredible run, backing up rounds of 74 and 73 to claim his second Boys 11–14 win of the month. Hudson Burell of New Braunfels, TX matched the feat in the Boys 15–18 division, going wire-to-wire for his second February victory. Meanwhile, Esther Li of Houston, TX delivered one of the most dominant performances of the month, pulling away from the field to win by a staggering 11 shots and capture her first Girls 11–18 title.

Now, all eyes turn to Hearthstone Country Club for the highly anticipated HTX Challenge — where one more chapter of championship golf is ready to be written.
