CT Pan Junior Championship AJGA OPEN
Tournament Information
Dates: June 22-25, 2026 Location: Pearland, Texas, USA
Number of participants: 78 Participant age: 12-18 years old
The American Junior Golf Association (AJGA) is the largest junior golf tour organization in the United States. Founded in 1978, it currently has over 6,900 members and hosts more than 120 tournaments and 72 qualifying events annually. AJGA tournaments and rankings are important indicators for college coaches in the United States when recruiting players. Over the past 30 years, more than 20 NCAA men's and women's champions have participated in AJGA tournaments, and AJGA alumni have won more than 830 PGA Tour and LPGA titles.
In 2007, 15-year-old CT Pan had just won a silver medal at the Asian Games but was ineligible to compete in the AJGA. With a wildcard from Oak Valley Academy, he finished fourth in his first AJGA tournament, securing his place for the entire year and opening the door to American universities. In 2018, CT Pan, only a second-year professional, performed exceptionally well on the PGA Tour, finishing the season ranked 35th in the FedEx Cup. At this time, he was concerned about the young athletes in his hometown, thinking of many talented young people like himself who lacked opportunities. Therefore, despite having only been in the profession for three years, in addition to organizing training camps, CT Pan went further and founded the AJGA CT Pan Junior Championship in the United States, providing opportunities for Taiwanese youth through wildcards and hoping to help them go on to American universities.
