swipes Careem Jewels
Binupa Wijesinghe an absolute "Lupperty" teenager crowned
himself with glory picking up an outstanding win in the Careem Jewellers
stroke play competition at the Ridgeways. The 14 year old has been
in great shape in recent months and his nett 68 off handicap 9 came
as no surprise to the string of strong competitors he had to match
with.
Mithun
Perera the other teenager on 17 came good too to tie with Binupa
but his back nine was not good enough. Ferin Careem the Chairman
of Hilton Jewellers will pick suitable awards for the two teenage
winners for their outstanding performances.
Straight
from the tabernacle Rajan Joseph got back his skills to punch his
way to a good win in the 'B' Division beating long driving Rathven
de Livera who settled on the same score nett 69.
Sumedha
Amerasinghe, Joseph Sebatu and Primal Wijenayake provided the confetti.
Tony
wins 'G'
Tony Nadaraja was outstanding with the best score of the
day. Still a rookie he fearlessly went for his shots and was amply
rewarded with a great nett 64 and a jewel from Careems. Klaes Bo
Rasmussen new on the scene impressed immensely with nett 66 to tie
with Lester Weinman who is striking a better ball after he changed
his coach. S. Subramaniam struck an excellent round of nett 68 and
celebrated incessantly.

good with nett 72 beating C. Thurairaja who walked behind with nett
74.
Poolists
J.M.L. Indika and B.G. Lalith Kumara were fairly impressive with
73 gross each. They are shaping superbly preparing for title events
on the subcontinent soon.
Maclaclan
Trophy
That young fella Mithun came good again to take the much
coveted Trophy beating Tony Nadaraja by just one stroke. Careem
