Coquitlam’s Euna Han will be among six golfers on two teams representing Canada at the World Junior golf championship that will be played Sept. 24 to 27 at the Angus Glen Golf Club in Markham, Ont.
It will be Han’s third time competing at the championship for the world’s top 18-and-under female junior golfers.. Now 16 years-old, she was part of Canada’s second team that finished 13th at the world championship in 2015 in Ottawa, and in 2017, her trio finished 20th.
This year, Han will be part of Canada’s top trio that also includes Brooke Rivers, of Brampton, Ont., and Emily Zhu, of Richmond Hill, Ont.
Han is coming off a third-place finish at the British Columbia amateur women’s championship that was held in Nanaimo in July. In August, she was seventh at the Canadian junior girls championship after she shot a course record eight under 64 in the first round at the Lethbridge Country Club.
As host country, Canada will have two trios among the 19 countries and 60 golfers competing at this year’s world junior championship.
