Although she ended the year in disappointment, Mia Piccio had
notable achievements in her first year with the Philippine training
pool. The 15-year-old prodigy finished 13th in the World Junior
Golf Championships in June in San Diego but gained valuable experience
that came in handy when she joined the Junior Amateur Golf Scholars
Tour. She topped the Madaline Hooper Memorial Tournament at the
California Golf and Country Club, winning by three strokes over
American Alex Kim in July 23. Piccio went tantalizingly close to
claiming her second straight crown two weeks later when she lost
in the playoff of the Toledo Junior Cup.*
