Five students from St Christopher’s School Bahrain represented the Royal Golf Club at the recent Emirates Golf Club Junior Open 2016 in Dubai and came away with several top prizes.
Yaseen Le Falher, 16, won the Overall Junior Trophy with an excellent gross 72, narrowly beating two other players on count back.
Ronan Smith, 14, was the winner of the Best Nett Boys Trophy after shooting an incredible nett 61, having recorded his best ever gross score of 79. Both boys also won the two nearest the -pin side contests on offer.
The other three St Christopher’s students, Charles t’Kint, Sebastian Woodrow and Alexandre Hopman Ruh, also performed admirably around the club’s famous Faldo Course. “I’m delighted to see my students performing so well in such a prestigious regional event,” commented Juanma Fuentes, Royal Golf Club teaching professional.
“They have all worked hard on improving their games and it’s great to see this effort paying off.”
