2026 TGR JR Invitational Delivers a Weekend to Remember at Pebble Beach
The 2026 TGR JR Invitational presented by TaylorMade brought two days of memorable competition to Pebble Beach Resorts, from opening tee shots at The Hay to championship putts at Del Monte. Sixty junior golfers traveled from across the country to test their games, display true sportsmanship and make memories they will carry for years to come.
The celebration kicked off on Saturday, October 10, with a welcome reception at The Hay. Each junior golfer received a swag bag stocked with custom tournament gear. On the course, players and their families made their way through a series of interactive stations that set an energetic tone for the weekend. Coca-Cola got things started on the first hole with the Epic Putt contest, while the Gross Labs Foundation and Brekky Golf presented a hole-in-one challenge on the second. At the TaylorMade station, every participant received a new Spider Tour putter, a keepsake to use during the event and long after the tournament wraps. A STEAM-based activation gave players a closer look at course management and the science behind the game.

Tournament play got underway on Sunday, October 11, at The Hay, where juniors put their skills on display through a combination of on-course competition and a nine-hole putting challenge. The short course buzzed with energy all day, blending friendly camaraderie with competitive play as participants rose to the occasion. Golf personalities Will Lowery and Judy Tran added to the fun as honorary tee starters.

Aryn Tirazona made the lone hole in one of the event. Celebration ensued both on the course and later in the evening as Tirazona was recognized by the Gross Labs Foundation and Brekky Golf as having accomplished a terrific feat.
After a full day on the course, players and chaperones reconvened Sunday evening at The Inn at Spanish Bay. Over dinner, juniors looked back on the day’s competition and celebrated together. The night’s centerpiece was a panel conversation with event host Tiger Woods and TGR Foundation Board Member Nick Gross, an entrepreneur, investor and drummer for punk rock bands Goldfinger and Girlfriends. To wrap up the evening, an open-mic Q&A let junior golfers put Woods and Gross on the spot, with questions that drew both laughs and inspiration.

Monday, October 12, brought the championship rounds to Del Monte Golf Course. Players went head-to-head in match play, with a title in every division up for grabs. From the championship matches to the consolation rounds, the field showed impressive talent and grit, bringing the weekend to a fitting finish.
