The field was made up of the top 50 players from the Challenge Tour and the top 50 players from the Championship Tour. Mary Janiga & Anthony Gabriele, who both reside in Wellington, were able to cap off their outstanding seasons with victories at the Tour Championship.

Roberts Cousins Capture 11-12 Player of the Year The Challenge Tour boys 11-12 age division provided plenty of entertainment during 2014.

The girls 11-12 age division didn’t feature as tight of a race as Boca Raton native Taylor Roberts was able to win seven tournaments during 2014 and capture the Girls 11-12 age division Player of the Year.
