PLAYERS OF THE FUTURE. by Pennant Manager, Roger Worms
Not many members would be aware that we have 2 young stars in the making at our club. Dujuan and Phil Snyman at the ages of 13 and16 are both playing off scratch. This is a very impressive performance but even more impressive is the fact that they achieve these h/caps playing all around Australia. These boys are currently ranked 3 and 4 in Australia in the Australian Junior Order Of Merit. The Order Of merit is a ranking system open to all juniors under the age of 18 and points are awarded depending on where they finish in all major junior tournaments around Australia. This year alone, they have played in the following tournaments:
- South Australian Junior Amateur
- South Australian Junior Masters
- Tasmanian Junior Amateur
- Tasmanian Junior Masters
- Victorian Junior Amateur
Phil and Dujuan have finished in the top 10 in every tournament. Phil finished 3rd in both the Victorian Junior Masters and the South Australian Junior Masters. Phil shot a final round of 67 in the SA Masters to narrowly get beaten for the title.
Dujuan finished 2nd in the South Australian Junior Am and had a great 71 in the 2nd round to miss out by 2 shots. Dujuan also finished 3rd in the South Australian Junior Masters to tie his brother.
It won’t be long before one of these boys bring home a big one.
