Miami, Fla. – Drew Angelo, Shawn Lalmoni, Skylee Shin & Caiyi (Flora) Zhang earned impressive FJT 54-Hole Major wins at Trump National Doral.

The Florida Junior Tour 54-Hole Major was played at the prestigious Trump National Doral. The players battled through windy conditions to post impressive rounds and earn great victories. The Boys 13-15 and Girls 13-18 divisions conquered the Red Course while the Boys 16-18 division played the first two rounds on the Golden Palm Course and the final round on the Blue Monster. 

A second FJT (16-18) win was accomplished by Doral native, Skylee Shin, by one stroke with a three-day total of 227 (+11). Shin was leading by one stroke, over Kayla Holden, heading into the final round after two consistent rounds of 77. It was a back and forth final round with Holden, of Coral Springs, chasing Shin for the win. Holden started the third round with two birdies in the first three holes while Shin scored two bogies. Holden remained steady throughout the remainder of the round, but with three birdies on holes five, six, and eight, Shin held onto the lead. Despite Both Holden and Shin scoring a final round 73, Shin’s early lead allowed her to come out on top of the leaderboard. Shin added a second FJT victory of the year to her resume while Holden finished in second place at 228 (+12). Ashleigh Angelo, of Bradenton, had her best finish of the year in third place with rounds of 76-78-77 for a 231 (+15) total.
