Marc Ong 3rd at SICC Junior Invitational

Three Academy juniors have finished inside the top 10 in the Boys 'A' division at the 20th SICC-DBS Junior Invitational Golf Championship. Marc Ong recorded the best performance of our juniors after three steady rounds of 72,72,73 at Singapore Island Country Club's Old Course. His 1-over par total put him in 3rd place. Edgar Oh closed out his tournament with a very good final round of 2-under par 70 for 7th place, while Abdul Hadi's final round 75 gave him 10th place.

Former Academy student and Singaporean Gregory Foo ran away the Boys 'A' division title after an incredibly impressive week of play on his home course. Gregory fired a 3-round total of 12-under par, streeting the field and claiming a massive 10 shots margin of victory. This included a brilliant 2nd round score of 7-under par 65! Gregory has had a terrific junior record of achievement. During his many years training under our Academy he claimed such titles as the Asia-Pacific Junior Championship as well as a 3rd placing at the prestigous Callaway Junior World Championships.

This years event was represented by junior golfers from countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines, Korea, Japan, India, UK, Australia and the Unites States.
