The president is calling on
Congress to ease regulations that *make

He's also urging the oil
companies to plow their profits into
finding and producing more energy.

:00 Today, juniors from all over the
state tried to play their way into the
field.

In the 15 to 18 year old
division, 16 girls teed it up competing
for two spots, and 70 boys went at it
for just 5 available spots.

This was also the first year
for a qualifier in the boys 14 and
under group.

The Robertson has grown into
one of the most prestigious junior
events in the country, and so too has
the competitive nature of just making
the field.
