by Martin Blake
Sarah Hammett from the Emerald Lakes Golf Club has won the under 18 Katherine Kirk Classic at Maroochy River today.
In tough conditions with winds of 38km/h gusting to 45 km/h, Hammett began the final day four shots from the lead held by Justice Bosio of Caboolture but reeled in the 36-hole leader with a final-round 70 to finish at even par overall for the 54 holes.
Bosio, the 2020 Keperra Bowl champion, posted a final-round 79 to slip away and finish third. Haruhi Nakatani of Surfers Paradise Golf Club was runner-up after a 78 today.
Local Ionna Muir won the 15 years and under section with scores of 74-72-75 while the 2017 Katherine Kirk Classic winner Cassie Porter (Peregian Springs) took home the under 21 years category with scores of 68-68-78.
