Coffs golfer wins Jack Newton Junior Golf Tour event

Milla Adamson celebrates her win at Wyong Golf Club.

MILLA Adamson has been on a real hot streak on the greens.

The 12-year-old won the recent Jack Newton Junior Golf Under 12 Tour event at Wyong, with a gross score of 90 having seven pars and a birdie.

The win in Wyong came on the back of winning the Port Macquarie Golf Club’s Junior Seaside Classic.

The Coffs Harbour Golf Club member got her handicap in July 2022, which was 44.5.

Last Christmas she set herself the lofty goal of getting her handicap down to 20 by August 2023.

The Mary Help of Christians student recently achieved her goal – with her handicap now 18.3.

Her mother Holly said it was a number they now both had in common.

“We are on the exact same handicap at the moment, and she’s been chasing me for a while and she finally got me,” she said.

“She is now looking to get it down into single figures, but she has not set a date for that yet.

“She still wants to be a pro golfer.”

The junior champion’s mother said it was a busy month ahead for her daughter.

“This weekend we are going to Black Heath where she will compete in the Polding level event and represent her school,” she said.

“And later this month we are going to Catalina for the South Coast Junior Masters, so she has been pretty busy.”
