Hong Kong Golf Club: Indian amateurs Ranveer Mitroo and Krish Chawla registered a fifth-place finish in the boys’ team competition after posting a combined total of four-over 430 in the Asia-Pacific Golf Confederation (APGC) Junior Championship here at the Hong Kong Golf Club. The Chinese pair of Jin Heng Yan and Jin Han won the boys team title with a tally of four-under 422.

Rainy weather conditions made it difficult for lower scores. However, Ranveer continued his golden run in the event by submitting a modest two-over 73 in the third and final round to finish sixth in the individual event. His overall total read two-under 211, the best among the four-member team sent by the Indian Golf Union (IGU). Krish finished 22nd with a three-round total of six-over 219.

New Zealand’s Cooper Moore clinched the boys individual title by a two-stroke margin over Tuan Anh Nguyen of Vietnam with a three-day total of nine-under 204.
