Gadsby wins against top competition on Sunday to take the British Junior Golf Tour Collingtree Classic.
A thrilling event on Sunday with 12 year old Ava Gadsby being crowned champion after leading the back 9 in first place with a 4 shot lead until a disastrous double bogey pulled the chasing pack of boy golfers within one shot. The remaining players to come in were unsuccessful to improve on the lead, leaving Ava victorious with a score of 78.
Ava came close recently coming runner up at The Hertsmere recently with a solid round.
Gadsby commented. “I’m improving everyday and putting the work in with my coaches and today I felt very comfortable on the course although it’s a course I’ve never played before and it was very tricky in places”.
It’s not the first time Gadsby has won a mixed event. Last year she won at The Grove shooting g a nett 69.
