Incoming freshman Brooke Sansom named SJGT Player of the Year

AUBURN, Ala. – Incoming Auburn women’s golf freshman Brooke Sansom was named the Southeastern Junior Golf Tour Player of the Year, the SJGT announced this week.

Sansom, from Pike Road, Ala., won all four SJGT events in which she played in 2017, taking titles at Lakewood GC, Montgomery CC, Wynlakes G&CC and Willow Point G&CC. She had a tournament scoring average of 70.25 in those events with just two rounds over par. In the event at Wynlakes, she carded a tournament-record 64 (-8) in the opening round.

“Brooke deserves this award as she is such an incredibly hard worker,” Auburn head coach Melissa Luellen said.
