Stephanie Kyriacou has claimed the biggest win of her young career in the Australian Master of the Amateurs at Royal Melbourne Golf Club on Friday 11th January.
Kyriacou carded a two-under-par 70 to win by three shots from Victorian Julienne Soo. Another shot behind was the overnight leader Grace Kim, who carded a disappointing four over par 76.
“I got off to a good start, I birdied two, and it gave me some momentum,”
“I had a few sneaky bogies on eight and nine, but I bounced back with a birdie (on the tenth), and I was pretty happy with that,” an ecstatic Kyriacou said after the round.
The teenager admitted to some genuine nerves over the closing stages.
“I was so nervous coming down the last hole, but I knew I had the lead down the last by a couple of shots, and I was talking to my caddie who said to stay calm just like on every other hole.”
Congratulations Stephanie!
