The second event of the Futures Tour headed to Studley Wood on Sunday 10th May, where 60 players competed for their chance to earn Order of Merit points. The popularity of the events are growing rapidly creating a competitive environment for the players to thrive.
Sammy Deacon (Drayton Park) birdied the last to sneak into the lead in the U12’s division on count back to Rex Pickavance (Castle Royle). Hiroyoshi Jo (Wexham Park) sat 3 shots back in third place. In the U14’s, Jack Grant (Gerrards Cross) took an early lead on +8. Arthur Scott (The Caversham) finished in style with back to back birdies to shoot a fantastic 74 (+1) to win the U14’s division.
Charlie Hodgson (Kirtlington) went under par on the back nine to finish +2 and take the clubhouse lead in the U16’s. Thomas James (Frilford Heath) made 2 crucial birdies on 17 & 18 to shoot 73 (level) and take the victory!
Congratulations to Sammy, Arthur & Thomas on winning their age division! The talent on display was superb and we’re excited to watch their progress throughout the season!
