Jackson in fourth place, four shots off Beber-Frankel's sizzling pace at Boys Junior PGA Championship


   Some of the best junior golfers on the planet are taking it really, really low in the 44th Boys Junior PGA Championship at the Keney Park Golf Course in Windsor, Conn. and Palmer Jackson, who claimed the PIAA Class AAA Championship as a senior at Franklin Regional last fall, is right in the middle of the fray.
   Jackson, who will join the Notre Dame program in a few weeks, fired a sparkling 6-under-par 64 in Thursday’s third round and is alone in fourth place at 14-under 196.
   Jake Beber-Frankel, the 17-year-old son of Academy Award- and Emmy Award-winning director David Frankel, smashed the 54-hole tournament record with his 18-under 192 total after a third-round 65 over the 6,446-yard, par-70 Keney Park layout, but Jackson, who plays out of Hannastown Golf Club, is only four shots out of the lead.
   Beber-Frankel broke the tournament and Keney Park course records with his 10-under 60 in Wednesday’s second round. His 192 total was seven shots better than the previous record of 199 set two years ago by Akshay Bhatia at the Country Club of St. Albans’ Lewis & Clark Course in St. Albans, Mo., although the Lewis & Clark Course was a par-72 layout and Keney Park plays to a par of 70.
   Jackson overcame a pair of bogeys on the front nine Thursday with four birdies as he went out in 2-under 33. He had back-to-back birdies at the 13th and 14th holes and again at the 17th and 18th holes as he came in at 4-under 31 to stay in the hunt in one of the biggest national events on the junior calendar each summer.
   Jackson is coming off a solid showing in last month’s U.S. Junior Amateur at the Inverness Club in Toledo, Ohio. He reached the third round of match play by knocking off the defending champion, Michael Thorbjornsen of Wellesley, Mass., in the second round. Jackson finished in a tie for 23rd in the Boys Junior PGA Championship a year ago at the Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Ky.
   Beber-Frankel, who plans to join the Stanford program in the summer of 2020, came out of the gate strong with birdies at the first, second and fifth holes. He finally made a bogey at the seventh – his sizzling second-round 60 featured 10 birdies with nary a bogey on the card – before closing out his front side with a birdie at the ninth hole.
   Beber-Frankel of Miami, Fla. got it to 19-under with birdies at the 12th, 14th and 16th holes before giving up a shot with a bogey at the 17th hole.
   “I definitely never had to ‘bounce back’ from a 60 before,” Beber-Frankel told the PGA of America website. “It was a fun experiment to see what happened.”
   Despite the second-round 60, Beber-Frankel was still trailing Canon Claycomb of Bowling Green, Ky. by a shot at the halfway point of the tournament. Claycomb, who plans to join the Alabama program in January in time for the spring semester next year, cooled off with a 2-under 68 that left him two shots behind Beber-Frankel in second place at 16-under 194. Claycomb finished in a tie for third a year ago at Valhalla.
   Andy Mao of Johns Creek, Ga. matched Jackson’s 64 and sits alone in third place, a shot behind Claycomb at 15-under 195. Mao will join the program of Atlantic Coast Conference power Georgia Tech later this month.
   Jolo Timothy Magcalayo of the Philippines headed a group of three players tied for fifth at 13-under 197, a shot behind Jackson. Magcalayo, who tuned up for his national junior campaign with a victory in a Philadelphia Section PGA Junior Tour stop at Back Creek Golf Club in May, posted a solid 3-under 67.
   Joining Magcalayo at 13-under were Jackson Rivera of Rancho Santa Fe, Calif. and Jack Heath of Charlotte, N.C.
   Rivera, who plans to join the Southern California program in the summer of 2021, fired a 5-under 65 to get it to 13-under. Heath, who plans to join the Tennessee program in the summer of 2020, cooled off a little after rounds of 65 and 64 with a 2-under 68.
   Austin Barbin of Elkton, Md., winner of the Philadelphia Boys Junior PGA Championship at The Springhaven Club during a scorching stretch of golf earlier this summer, carded a solid 1-under 69 and is in the group tied for 16th at 8-under 202. Barbin will join the Maryland program at the end of this month.
   Barbin, who also claimed a win in the Golf Association of Philadelphia’s 105th Junior Boys’ Championship at Coatesville Country Club in June, and Magcalayo both missed a playoff for the final seven spots in match play in the U.S. Junior Amateur at the Inverness Club by a shot.
   Central York senior Carson Bacha, the Class AAA East Regional winner last fall at Golden Oaks Golf Club, signed for a 1-over 71 to join the group tied for 66th at 2-over 212. Bacha, who plans to join the Auburn program in the summer of 2020, finished in a tie for 23rd in the Junior Boys PGA Championship two years ago at the Country Club of St. Albans.
