The TJGT/OJGT Red River Challenge was played October 31st-November 1st, 2009 at the historic Dornick Hills Golf and Country Club in Ardmore, Oklahoma. The event was a mere 48 hours away from not being played due to all of the heavy rain the course had received but the crew at Dornick Hills did a fantastic job of getting the course ready. You couldn’t have asked for better Fall weather as well with two days in the 60’s and only slight wind on Saturday. There were 111 players from Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas, Canada, and Mexico playing in this 36-hole, Golfweek-ranked event that features a team format along with individual competition.

As has been the case in past years several college coaches come out to watch the best players from Texas compete against the best from Oklahoma and there year was no exception. Over 20 college coaches were in attendance from Division I, Division II, Division III, NAIA, and the National Junior College Athletic Association, from schools like Oklahoma, TCU, SMU, Arkansas, Wichita State, OCU, Kansas, and Cameron University, just to name a few. All Boys 12-18 played 6,501 yards and all Girls 12-18 played 5,550 yards on this classic course that demanded you be in the right position to have any chance to score.
