The Junior Competitions are coming thick and fast and with valuable Ray Lowe Order of Merit Points up for grabs each event takes on more significance.
Chloe Gaudion put herself right in the mix with a superb round on Monday to take the win in the under 28 handicap category and with it ten valuable order of Merit points. Chloe is without question one of our most talented Juniors and she really went through the gears. After a birdie at the second she never looked back and finished with a superb 41 points. She is now playing off 14 and no doubt eyeing single figures in the not too distant future. Daniel Troop was runner up with an excellent round of 40 points which included nine pars and a brilliant birdie at the 16th. Rory Mckenna will be pleased with his days work shooting level par 32 on the back nine.
In the over 28 handicap category newcomer Jack Migasiuk made it two wins out of two with another stunning performance with 46 points following his extraordinary 51 points last week. Oliver Farmer continues to impress and was runner up with 39 points.
In the blue tee competition both players excelled themselves. La Grande Mare is a tough course at the best of times but the challenge for our youngest players is particularly demanding with tough carries on many of the holes. Theo Hollyer-Hill came out on top with a round of the highest quality with 21 points, Anton Swale was also under par.
Next up we are back at L’ancresse on Sunday for the Valentine Trophy and St Davids Cup.
