World Van Horn Cup 2021

Overview
Following the three-day championship, qualifying boys and girls from each of the 12-year-old age groups are selected to play in the Van Horn Cup, a one-day best ball tournament contested on Pinehurst No. 2.
Selection Procedure
World Van Horn Cup participants will be selected based on score after 36 holes (Round 2). Once 36-hole scores are compiled, the Van Horn Cup selections and an alternate list will be published. Selected players will receive a special World Van Horn Cup bag, hat, and caddie bib for the competition.
Format: Team Best Ball Stroke Play
In each of the eight matches, the team with the lowest score after 18 holes will win one point for his/her team. If the competition ends in a tie, a playoff will determine the winner.
2020 World Van Horn Cup Recap
With COVID-19 limiting International participation in the 2020 World Championship, the event format was changed to feature a Red vs. Blue format instead of the traditional United States v. International format. The Blue Team secured the Cup by a final score of 5-3.
Each year, the boys and girls pairings with the lowest rounds in the World Van Horn Cup are awarded a Morrison Medal, named in honor of the late Sir Garth Morrison, who was Lord Lieutenant for East Lothian, and his wife Lady Gill Morrison.
Henry Guan (Texas) & Tyler Mawhinney (Florida) claimed the Morrison Medal from the boys' side with a Van Horn Cup record round of 11-under 61 around Pinehurst No. 2. Hadley Ashton (Colorado) and Chloe Chang (Florida) posted a round of 3-under 69, and took home the Morrison Medals from the girls’ age groups.
