The Arizona Junior Match Play Championship was held August 2-3 at Desert Forest Golf Club in Carefree, AZ. After two days of stormy weather, the tournament finally concluded on the evening of the 3rd; however, a few of the matches were cut short on the final day. Originally scheduled for two, 18-hole matches, both the semi-final matches and final matches had to be cut to 9-hole matches.  

On the boys side, Hayden Sayre of Phoenix topped Trevor Werbylo of Tucson 2&1. In the consolation match, Chandler’s Mason Andersen edged out Tucson’s Jonathan Walters in the final hole of the match to win 2 Up.

On the girl’s side, the match between Scottsdale’s Isabella Cantwell and Sara Padilla went to the last hole. Isabella won the final hole to win 2 Up over Sara. In the consolation match, Scottsdale’s Katie Wilson won 2&1 over Gilbert’s Sara Hameed.
