Final Results

RALEIGH, N.C. – The Rex Hospital Open hosted the third annual Pro-Junior Invitational presented by Corporate Express on Sunday. Wake Forest Rolesville graduate Jordan Walor shot the low round of the event and earned a sponsor’s exemption into the official Nationwide Tour event, June 5 – 8. Walor’s two-under-par 69 gave him medalist honors by one stroke. He will go on to compete with the professionals beginning Thursday, June 5.

Walor (34-35=69) bagged five birdies as opposed to only three bogeys to finish two-under at the par-71 TPC Wakefield Plantation course. His birdies came at the par-4 first and ninth holes, the par-3 seventh hole and par-5 13^th and 18^th holes. Walor was named the 2008 Cap 7 Athletic Conference’s Player of the Year for his performance at Rolesville High and has decided to continue his playing career as a member of the UNC Pembroke men’s golf team.

Walor’s nearest competitor was Daniel Meggs of Butler High School in Charlotte. Meggs shot a one-under 70 (35-35) and finished one stroke back of Walor.

The low girls’ round of the day was shot by Courtney Gunter of Porter Ridge High School in Matthews. The 2008 Girls 1A/2A/3A champion shot a two-over-par 73 (38-35). Meghan Moore from Bahama, NC finished second in the girls’ division with a four-over 75 (38-37).

The top 18 high school girls and top 54 high school boys based on their current ranking by the Tarheel Golf Association, Junior Golf Scoreboard, Golfweek or past performance in golf events over the last year competed. Included amongst these golfers were all current North Carolina High School Athletic Association State Champions. 

The format of the Pro-Junior Invitational is three high school boys, one high school girl and one Nationwide Tour professional in each group. Each team competed in a best ball competition, while all the high school golfers also participated in a gross score competition.
