Taniya Minel Balasuriya beat out the pack to emerge the overall winner of the NDB Private Wealth Junior Masters Golf Challenge Trophy at the Royal Colombo Golf Club recently. Expert financial planner NDB Wealth conducted the third edition of the tournament paving a platform to showcase young golfing talent of the country.
While Taniya bagged the Gold category (15 to 17 years) and overall titles, Levon Niyarepola emerged the Silver category (12 to 14 years) winner. Nirekh Tejwani won the Bronze category (10 to 11 years) while Kvahn Tejwani clinched the lowest age category Copper division (nine years and below).
Importantly, this year’s NDB Private Wealth Junior Masters Golf Championships also saw a steady uptick in participants, with interest expressed by several overseas participants.
This is a clear indicator that the tournament’s longstanding mission to promote junior golf has made considerable headway.
Further, the NDB Private Wealth Junior Masters Golf Championship has grown increasingly popular in no small part because of the significant rewards on offer.
The four winners, as well as those earning first and second runner-up slots in each category, all earned NDB Wealth accounts of significant value for their winning performances, which will serve as an investment into their sporting future. Additionally, all competitors in the 2017 NDB Private Wealth Junior Masters Golf Championship also received NDB Wealth accounts as gifts for participating.
“I am very impressed with the incredible turn-out and tournament we witnessed at the 2017 NDB Private Wealth Junior Masters Golf Championships, which is now in its third consecutive year. The growth of junior golf in Sri Lanka is undoubtedly very important to us at NDB Wealth. We have invested heavily in the sport, not only with this tournament, but also with our sponsorship of the National Junior Golf Rankings, since we believe that it is one of the best options for Sri Lankan athletes to distinguish themselves internationally,” commented Prabodha Samarasekera, CEO of NDB Wealth.
