The Wilkinson Sword Junior Championships Monday, 19 August saw a windy and testing day once again at Leeds Golf Club, as has been the theme this year for our major competitions such as the Cobble Hall Scratch, Leeds Amateur Cup, Leeds Cup and the Wilkinson Sword Junior Championships. An increase in the field from last year saw some good scoring and some great shot-making. After all, was said and done, Sandmoor Golf Club's Amaan Iqbal took the gross prize and Ripon City Golf Club's William Hixon won the nett prize.
Lots of positive feedback came from all the players, even those whose score did not quite reflect their true ability. The Wilkinson Sword Junior Championships have been competed for since the late 1970s, with a number of players going on to ply their trade on the likes of the European Tour.
