"The Gran Canaria Santa Pro Junior is set once again to play a major role in deciding this year's qualifiers to the ASP World Junior Championships," Rob Gunning, European Tour Manager confirms. "It's 3-Star rating ensures maximum points for the men's division and the rippable beach break of La Cicer will provide the playing field for all the action to unfold."
