Golf: Sienna Mosquera Places 3rd In Florida
Sienna Mosquera clinched 3rd place in the Hurricane Junior Tournament at Fernandina Beach Golf Course in Florida.
A spokesperson said, “Sienna Mosquera of Port Royal Golf Course, Bermuda continues to show promise placing 3rd in the Hurricane Junior Tournament in Fernandina Beach Golf Course in Florida.
“Weather conditions were favorable – sunny, light winds, 79/80 F degrees and Sienna tied low score for the final round which catapulted her within 3 shots of the winner, settling for 3rd place.
“Sienna continues to strive to improve. Over the spring break she competed alongside visiting UK golfers on island for the Bermuda, UK, & Ireland Golf Fam Trip, including Tom Fleming, Chairman, PGA of Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire [BBO], along with being Director of Golf at Donnington Grove Golf Resort, Martyn Thompson, the Southwest England Girls Golf Coach, and Huddersfield Golf Club Pro Mrs Alex Keighley.
“Sienna stepped outside her comfort zone by competing in the Moongate Tournament at Port Royal off of the Championship Tees with the top male players. This type of competition on island is obviously preparing her when home.
“The field was competitive with players equally matched. Sienna’s solid 2nd round play enabled her to make up ground.
“Sienna’s drives were averaging 230 yards and she kept to her game plan. She averaged 1.6 putts per hole and on the final round her short game was especially sharp making 14 pars in 18 holes shooting 77 [+5].
“Next tournament is May 4th, Hurricane Junior Golf Tour at Champions Gate CC Junior Open in Florida.”
