Sydney Deal 2022
Ohio Junior Girls Champ!

Sydney Deal carded a 2-under par 70 in round one of the Ohio Junior Girls' Championship, adding a second round of even par 72 to claim the title by just one shot over runner-up, Audrey Ryu.

Sydney’s love for golf began at a very early age. She and older brother, Mason, accompanied their parents and grandparents on the course as soon as they could walk. Sydney joined the PGA Junior League and the Toledo Junior Golf Association early on.  She has played in many GolfWeek Junior Tour events and some AJGA tournaments.  She was an individual state qualifier her freshman and sophomore years for Perrysburg High School. Syd is also accomplished at tennis. Her school allowed her to try out for the boy’s tennis team as girl’s golf and tennis compete in the same fall season, while boy’s tennis is a spring sport.  Sydney made varsity and has won many more matches than she has lost. She even had to compete against her own brother for the sectional championship title last year!  We believe these experiences have contributed to building her quiet confidence and competitive nature on the golf course.
