The Srixon Billiard Factory Prestige Tour is the STPGA’s most elite and competitive level of junior golf.  While some of our better players exclusively play this Tour due to its year-round nature, exemptions, and rankings, it is also designed to give our Junior Tour players an opportunity to experience a higher level of play and compete in multi-day events. Srixon Billiard Factory Prestige Tour tournaments are contested over the course of 2-3 days with juniors playing 18-holes a day for a total of 36- or 54-holes. This Tour is open to players ages 13-18*, and while it is often viewed as a resource to prepare for state and national events as well as college golf, it is important to note that not all players who compete on this Tour plan to continue their journey with college golf.

The Srixon Billiard Factory Prestige Tour started in 2012 with a handful of events over the course of the year and has grown to a boisterous schedule of over 37 events! Players who compete on this Tour have the opportunity to earn exemptions into a multitude of state and national events conducted by various organizations, earn AJGA Performance Stars, Junior Golf Scoreboard Rankings, and Global Junior Golf Rankings! 

The Southern Texas PGA is a proud co-owner of the Legends Junior Tour with the Northern Texas PGA and Texas Golf Association. This ownership allows us to award exemptions into Legends Junior Tour events across the state of Texas. The Srixon Billiard Factory Prestige Tour is designed to provide high-level competition within our Section, while the Legends Junior Tour creates competition between the best juniors across the state of Texas!

Not only can players earn exemptions into Legends Junior Tour events by playing on the Srixon Billiard Factory Prestige Tour, but players also have an opportunity to receive a “Battlefield Promotion”. The Battlefield Promotion was created in 2019 to provide Srixon Billiard Factory Prestige Tour and NTPGA All American Tour players direct access to the Legends Junior Tour. It states, should a player win three times in a calendar year on these Tours, such player will earn a Battlefield Promotion to the Legends Junior Tour and would become fully exempt for the remainder of that calendar year and the following year. 

Note: Due to the structure of the alliance, the three wins can be combined between the STPGA Srixon Billiard Factory Prestige Tour and the NTPGA All-American Tour.

At Srixon Billiard Factory Prestige Tour events, players can also earn Priority Status into Legends Junior Tour events. Players who have distinguished themselves in previous Tier 1 and 2 competitions will be given priority over other players. For more information about Legends Junior Tour Priority Status, Click Here.
