Jackson Delaurier's golf season is rolling on and it's one that is proving to bring forth many first-place finishes on the leaderboard.
Playing on the Westman Junior Tour, Delaurier won the first event of the season a few weeks ago at the Minnedosa Golf & Country Club by firing an 82 to sit atop the 14 and under age group.
Last week in Killarney, the member at the Dauphin Lake Golf Club edged Micky Giordani-Gross by one stroke to win his second tournament of the season and now, Delaurier is back at it again.
The Tour made its way to the Poplar Ridge Golf Course yesterday for its third week of competition and Delaurier is a three-time winner. Jackson put together a great round that saw him shoot an 83. The round was even more impressive because he managed the 83 despite getting an 8 on 18.
The next nearest golfer was five strokes back.
"I played pretty well; I just missed a few putts. All in all, it was a really good round," offered Delaurier. "Winning this tournament just helps me feel like everyone is chasing me and I'm not chasing them. I'm pretty happy with how things are going right now."
Speaking of that next nearest golfer, it was Luke Myhre, also of Dauphin. Myhre who will play in the Bantam Championship later this month shot an 88. That finished him in second and finishing in a tie for third was Boston Karlson with his 91.
Not only is Jackson happy about winning these events, but he's also happy to see so many of his friends up near the top of the leaderboard.
"It's really great to see them playing good golf as well," said Delaurier. "I know both of them were very happy."
Hayden Shtykalo finished second in the 12 and under age group with his 91 while Quinten Fisk fired a 101 to finish in third. Landyn Garton was in fifth.
Next up for Delaurier is a two-player scramble which the Westman Tour is hosting next week at the Minnedosa Golf and Country Club. Jackson is teaming up with Boston Karlson who he has played a ton with already this summer and the duo is looking to make some noise, something that they've already done this season.
"We're really excited for the scramble, we've been practicing for it for a while, it should be fun," finished Delaurier.
