Kaya tipped to make the cut

Representing Sri Lanka, Kaya Daluwatte showed her consistent skills with a four over par round, tying for 23rd place out of 50 golfers in the girls’ segment at The R&A Junior Open Championship which commenced in Scotland on Tuesday.

Daluwatte was well-placed to make the cut, her steady play reflecting a calm and focused approach.

Jevahn Sathasivam faced challenges on the course, finding himself at the 40th place among the world’s leading 65 junior players. Sathasivam will need to play an exceptional round to secure his place beyond the cut, adding an element of pressure and excitement to his next performance.
