GolfWA enews - Junior Pennants underway

Hello once again from GolfWA
We're two weeks into our revamped Junior Pennant season and we're seeing some fantastic golf from the state's top juniors.
The competition has expanded to include the regional participation with Goldfields and Bunbury Golf Clubs joining the mix for the first time.

Rules Corner: Slam-dunk damage!

Golf and basketball has its...differences, but one of the few things have in common is that we love a good slam-dunk!

Golf's very rare but highly celebrated slam-dunk can cause quite a bit of damage to the cup -- as we learnt during Round 1 of the Junior Pennant season thanks to analmost-slam-dunk from Bunbury's Nick Liebenberg.

So the cup is a bit messed up and we have two of our gun juniors all square on the 18th facing birdie putts. What happens next? Click here to find out.

Green takes on Ko again

Mount Lawley's Hannah Green has the daunting but exciting challenge of playing the opening round of the NZ Women's Open alongside World Number 1 Lydia Ko!

Not only is our gun amateur looking to back up last year's outstanding runner-up finish, she'll have to do it with a throng of NZ golf fans and media following her.

There are plenty of promising signs with Green saying she's hitting it further and better than ever. Read more here.

Entries open!

Get excited for a HUGE month of amateur golf in March with the State Amateur at Cottesloe Golf Club and the Bowra & O'Dea Women's Classic at Lake Karrinyup Country Club.

For the second straight year, the Bowra & O'Dea Women's Classic will have three divisions; the 72 hole championship, the 54 hole mid-amateur and the 54 hole seniors -- providing everyone a chance to play the fantastic Lake Karrinyup layout.
