Whiting's recent triumph at the MJT Maui Jim Series tournament has not only solidified his position as a rising star in Canadian junior golf but has also earned him a sought-after spot in the prestigious Callaway FCG World Junior Championships in Rancho Mirage Golf Club, Palm Desert, CA. Additionally, his victory qualifies him for two other prominent MJT Tours, including the MJT Future Stars Invitational and the 2024 MJT East Coast Junior Championship at Mountain Woods GC in Moncton, New Brunswick.
