The Drip Golf Tour (DGT) hosted the Lowcountry Junior Open February 14–15, 2026, at Hilton Head National Golf Club, welcoming a strong field of junior golfers to one of the Lowcountry’s premier competitive venues.
Played over 36 holes, competitors faced cool coastal conditions and a championship course set up while demonstrating resilience, sportsmanship, and high-level shot-making throughout the weekend.
Noah Fry of Waxhaw, North Carolina, captured the High School Boys title with steady rounds of 75-75—150 to earn a one-shot victory.

Bluffton, South Carolina native Jack Semeraro used a strong final round to claim the Middle School Boys championship with rounds of 78-73—151. His closing 73 was the low round of the division and secured a six-shot victory. Stuart Gentry of Livingston, Montana, placed second at 79-78—157, and Cooper Scheurich of Leesburg, Virginia, finished third with rounds of 81-78—159.
John Sanabria of Greenville, South Carolina, set the tone early with a tournament-low 67 in the opening round and followed with a 76 to finish at 143 (+1), earning a five-shot victory in the Future Stars division.
