He is now leading the under 12 nett score by a massive 23 shots with one round to play.He is 16th out of 20 in the under 12 stroke.The last round will be played on friday. What a marvelous effort for a 10 year old boy competing with players two years his senior. I am sure you will recognise Riley around the course and encourage him to continue his golfing journey.
