Just make sure you play what you can and that you play as well as possible in those events. It isn’t necessary to travel all over the world. I had very limited resources as a junior golfers also. Focusing on events in your own area can trim costs. Consider contacting tournament officials and asking about private housing when you can’t stay at home. There is always a club member or local supporter who would love to host a young golfer who needed a little help. Make sure it is organized through the tournament so it is always legal. Just do what you can. With creativity and resourcefulness you can stretch things out pretty well. I even camped at events a few times, as crazy as that sounds.
Obviously, if you don’t play tournaments you won’t be evaluated by coaches. I always held a job in the summer to help pay for me events. You may need to do that if you don’t already. Good luck!
Just a follow up question on how many tournaments, I am on a limited budget for tournaments this summer, what is the minimum I should be playing in? Thanks
