Chateau Elan outside of Atlanta in
April and the Rolex Tournament of
Champions last week in Ohio.
Ellenbogen has 12 additional top-10
finishes in national junior golf events
and recently qualified for the 2007
U.S. Women's Open. She currently is
ranked Nunder 6 in the nation by the
Polo Golf Rankings. The Canon Cup is
unique in that each team consists of 10
boys and 10 girls with Mississippi

is not a Car of Tomorrow track this

The Speeway has come into its own
