Koreans add international flavour to Wanneroo Golf Club junior event

Mark DonaldsonWanneroo Times

WANNEROO Golf Club hosted one of the biggest junior amateur events of the year recently, welcoming golfers from around the state and also from South Korea.

Junior co-ordinator Jay Giles said the contest attracted 56 entrants, with the South Koreans using the event as a warm-up for the Australian Junior Amateurs held a week later last month.

Giles said “the Koreans played very well but just missed out on the prizes”.
