OGA expands with new junior series As golf continues to grow and thrive in the state, so does the OGA. This will be the second year for our Women’s Stroke Play Championship, to be held at Meadowbrook Country Club on Aug. 15-16 in conjunction with the men’s Senior Stroke Play Championship. Already many of the best college players in the state are telling us they are planning their summer schedules around it to make sure they can play. Brand new this summer is a series of six junior events to be held in conjunction with the Texas Junior Golf Tour. These events are going to add to the OJGT events already held in the spring and fall, giving our Oklahoma juniors even more quality events. Golfers can enter at www.okgolf.org or www.tjgt.com – the schedule is below. We’re very excited about our 2022 OGA calendar as well. Our flagship event, the State Amateur Championship, is July 25-29 at Oklahoma City Golf & Country Club. The pros play one Perry Maxwell gem in May at Southern Hills,
