In the Boys 12 and Under Division, current merit point leader JJ Qualkenbush of Lahina, HI put together two<br />
solid rounds of 75 and 78 to take home the title. Qualkenbush has been on quite a hot streak as of l<strong>at</strong>e taking<br />
dead aim <strong>at</strong> every flagstick. Qualkenbush’s heroic shot making started by holing out from 90 yards on the par 4<br />
No. 6 on S<strong>at</strong>urday and again on Sunday on the par 5 No. 9 from 130 yards, both for eagle. Qualkenbush had<br />
this to say about his remarkable shot on the ninth hole;<br />
“My ball was sitting in a soggy area of the fairway and I was just concentr<strong>at</strong>ing on getting it close. Next thing I<br />
knew; it went in.”<br />
As players entered Sunday’s final-round, many were hoping to leave with the coveted <strong>IJGT</strong> Belt Buckle<br />
awarded to those who record the lowest round on Sunday. As though it was déjà vu, this week’s winners were<br />
all receiving their second Belt Buckles for their outstanding final-round scores. Jim Liu fired a 5-under-par<br />
round of 67 while Eric Sugimoto posted a solid 73 on Sunday and JJ Qualkenbush took home another Belt<br />
Buckle with a final-round of 78.<br />
