It is with an extremely heavy heart that we inform you that Karen Hannaford, Premier Junior Tour founder and owner, has passed away at the age of 59.
In early December, Karen was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. The cancer was very aggressive and led to a major stroke on Christmas Eve. She passed a few days later from further complications.
We are all at a loss for words and still in shock to lose her so suddenly and so quickly.
In July 2007, Karen started Premier Junior Golf Tour. She started the Tour not only to help provide a platform for her sons to succeed in junior golf and in life, but to help as many other families as possible to do the same. Her love and her life will always be remembered and cherished by those who knew her, both on and off the golf course.
At this time, 2021 Premier Junior Tour events and operations are on hold until further notice. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we determine how best to move forward.
