Sisira Kumara maintained his third position whilst Pradeep Kumara too, played consistent Golf to finish in fourth place seven strokes adrift of the winner.
T. Akash proved his consistency with four rounds of 77, 6 over par to be the top junior with 308, aggregate of four rounds seven strokes ahead of Armand Flamer Caldera on 315. Lamindi Rainika the top junior in February and March was a further four strokes behind Armand. However, Akash finished in 12th place among the overall Grand Prix field.
