| 2011 District Winners | Past District Results (1999-2010) | Past International Participants |
Many of the state's best junior golfers have participated in the Optimist International Junior Golf Championships and the Indiana South District Tournament. In fact, most of the participants come back year after year! Two Indiana South District participants, Jeffrey Overton of Evansville and Angela Gauck of Greensburg won the International Tournament in their respective age groups in 2001. After an outstanding career at Indiana University, Jeff is playing on the PGA Tour. Angela is now on the women's golf team at Marian College. Many other past participants are currently playing professional golf or are playing on college teams. Some have shown amazing progress as they return year after year. Others simply enjoy the opportunity to play tournament golf and have fun. In 2008, Collin Brinker of Evansville scored a hole-in-one, only the second in District Tournament history. Thomas Moore of Indianapolis, also recorded a hole-in-one in 2002. Who will be next? (Note: Wendy Jo Kramer of Evansville recorded a hole-in-one at the International Tournament in 2000.)
Greetings

many great memories from the Optimist International Junior Golf Championships

Have fun, and remember what my dad always told me, "the harder I work at
something the luckier I get at it."
