Kaelyne Munene and Siqian Yu tied on 82 points and went into the playoff won by Munene. Hope Oduor finished \u00a03rd in the category.<\/p>\n<p>The boys 12 years category produced yet another winner with Shuhan Peng topping the group with79 points. He was in a closely fought battle with Jeff Kivi who finished one stroke behind with 80 points. Plash Tank battled to third position with 87 points.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt felt nice to win because this is my best course, I prefer playing here. It was really nice because I just tried to put my balls in the fairway. I want to do well because my target is to play at the world championships,\u201d explained Shuhan.<\/p>\n<p>After winning the last three legs, Yolanda Yu was finally knocked off the top position in the girls\u2019 13-14 years category. Amani Murithi was impressive as she won the category with 84 points, just one stroke better than Yolanda Yu who finished second with 85 points. Lael Mwangale was a distant third with 87 points.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is my home club (royal) and I usually play well here. But I mostly play at Vet Lab. Today we started from hole ten which was good for me because I find it the hardest. And I played better on that side considering I haven\u2019t played this week at all. I want to improve and keep my scores at maybe 80-85 for the rest of the season,\u201d said Amani.<\/p>\n<p>Guanzhe Wang played six over par 78 to win the boys 11 years category ahead of Nathan Kiarie who had 84 points. Xia Yu finished third with a score of 99.<\/p>\n<p>After the first four legs in Limuru Country Club, Vet Lab Sports Club, Thika Sports Club, and Royal Nairobi Golf Club, October will be a busy month for the JGF Local Tour with the fifth, sixth and seventh legs at the Windsor Golf Hotel and Country Club, Sigona Golf Club, and Windsor again.
