Sri Lanka sends team for All-India Open Amateur golf tourney Sri Lanka will send a team for the All-India Open Amateur Golf Championship to be staged in Calcutta in February next year (2004), which is to be worked off on stroke-play. The President of the Sri Lanka Golf Union (SLGU), Shiran de Soysa, said that the Milo Sri Lanka Junior Open Championship is scheduled to be staged at the RCGC on December 17, 18 and 19 where nearly 30 players are expected to tee off. He said: With Prabhakaran doing well in Nuwara Eliya, there are quite a few youngsters taking to the sport. Five from NEGC played at the Sri Lanka Amateur Championship last week and three of them will play in the Milo Sri Lanka Junior Open. Two of them are under 17 years. Victoria GC will have about six juniors and RCGC are expected to field about 20. "Richard Pieris and Company first sponsored the Sri Lanka Junior Open. It was then not staged for many years, but revived last year thanks to Milo", said De Soysa. (L.G.) |
