Esterline, a 2027 Auburn commit, won the Junior PGA Championship by six shots on Friday afternoon and, in turn, earned an automatic Junior Ryder Cup berth.

In the Girls Division, Californian Asterisk Talley shot a final-round 71 to finish at 12 under and win by one stroke over Zoe Cusack (70). Talley, 16, was the No. 14-ranked player in the World Amateur Golf Rankings going into the PGA Junior, and No. 2 in the AJGA Rankings. She was the runner-up in this year's Augusta National Women's Amateur.
