Ariya Jutanugarn

Fresh off her win at the Canadian Women’s Amateur, Ariya Jutanugarn successfully defended her title at the 2012 Junior PGA Championship Girls Division. The last player to take titles in back to back years was LPGA Major winner Inbee Park in 2001 and 2002. Ariya’s 14-under 274 score was enough to best 2nd place Samantha Wagner by 3 shots. Ariya’s sister, Moriya Jutanugarn, finished in 4th place, 6 shots back at 8-under. Robby Shelton won the Boys Division.
