AJGA FUTURELINKS JUNIOR AT WHISTLER
Whistler Golf Club
Whistler, British Columbia
August 20-23, 2001
PLAY HALTED IN SECOND ROUND DUE TO
HEAVY RAINS
Fifty-nine players to conclude second round Thursday
morning
WHISTLER, B.C.-- Rains that have been falling
for two straight days finally caught up with Whistler
Golf Club on Wednesday afternoon as conditions became
unplayable to finish the second round. Fifty-nine players
will conclude the second round Thursday at 7 a.m., then
will play nine holes in the afternoon, shortening the
tournament to 45 holes.
The FutureLinks Junior at Whistler, conducted by the
American Junior Golf Association, features 84 golfers,
ages 13-18, from 10 states and four Canadian provinces.
Thirty-three players from Canada and three AJGA Polo
Golf Junior All-Americans are included in the field.
The precipitation started Tuesday morning, and has
fallen steadily since. The players got a brief break
from the showers this morning, but it started falling
again around 8 a.m. A heavy downpour suspended play
at 10:55 a.m., which caused a one-hour and 36-minute
delay. Play resumed around 12:30 p.m., but rains continued
to fall before play was finally suspended for good at
2:14 p.m.
Twenty-four golfers, however, did complete their rounds.
Zack Miller of San Rafeal, Calif., and Dustin Frontis
of Yakima, Wash., finished the round with a two-day
total of even-par 142.
Miller, competing in his sixth AJGA tournament this
summer, shot an even-par 71 for the second straight
day to grab a share of the lead. Miller overcame a slow
start, bogeying the first two holes and three of the
first five. He turned it around with birdies on Nos.
6, 8 and 9 to make the turn at 1-under-par 35.
"I had to work my way to get back to 1-under,"
Miller said. "I hit a lot of good irons off the
tee to keep the ball in play, because my grips were
getting wet."
Miller, who won the AJGA Shell World Golf Village Junior
Championship in late-July, took a conservative approach
to his round.
"I hit more approaches to the center of the green,"
Miller added. "I didn't take very many chances
and I just wanted to make pars today."
Miller will be looking to become a multiple-event winner
on the AJGA tour this summer.
"I need more putts to fall tomorrow to have a
chance," Miller said. "If I can do that, I
should be able to put up a low number."
Frontis, playing in his third event, had an up-and-down
round en route to his 1-under-par 70. Frontis recorded
four birdies in a five-hole span on the front nine,
then withstood three straight bogeys to record his 70.
"I hit a lot of close approach shots today that
set up my birdies," Frontis said. "After the
stretch of bogeys, I played in even-par the rest of
the way."
Frontis, who finished sixth at the AJGA Compaq Junior
Championship at Trophy Lake, enjoys playing in adverse
conditions.
"Being from Washington, I have an advantage because
I have played several times in bad weather," Frontis
added. "For tomorrow, I just need to go out and
avoid any letdowns."
