Update on Becky Kay

Becky Kay and fellow Queenslander Amy Walsh were sent by Golf Queensland to compete in the South Australian Junior Masters held at The Royal Adelaide Golf Club.   Amy finished 1st with Becky coming second by 1 shot. The Queensland team of Becky and Amy also won the interstate team event.

Becky stayed in Adelaide and two days later competed in the 2013 Golf SA Junior Amateur Championships held at Kooyonga GC, The Grange GC and Glenelg GC all sand-belt courses in Adelaide.  Becky lead the field by 1 shot after the first day at Kooyonga but found herself 2 shots behind at the end of the second day at The Grange. She started the third day at Glenelg with a bogey on the 1st with the gap now 3 shots,  this stayed the same through 9 holes.  Later Becky found herself 2 behind with 2 to play, then 1 behind with 1 to play tying with Jenny Lee for second.   On the last hole Jenny Lee and Becky hit their drives into the middle of the fairway, whilst the leader found the water twice and was now out of it.  This put everything square between Jenny and Becky who both hit the Green in regulation, Jenny missing a long putt leaving Becky with a 12 foot putt for victory which she sunk finishing -1 for the day.


Congratulations Becky, well done!
