Riverside, Iowa – The first annual Albaugh Junior Invitational took place on September 21-22 at Talons of Tuscany in Ankeny, Iowa. The player field consists of the top juniors of the 2019 Iowa PGA Junior Tour Player of the Year Point List and the Iowa Golf Association Player of the Year Point List.
Unfortunately significant rain Saturday night and Sunday forced cancellation of round 2.
