Golfers were back on the course for the second round of national qualifiers in a bid to secure spots to represent the Cayman Islands national team to compete in the 2018 Caribbean Amateur Golf Championships later this year.
26 golfers completed rounds at the Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman on 27 January with a breeze blowing in from the North Sound.
At the end of the day’s play, Payten Wight had the best round with 77. His father, Michael Wight, who had the best round two weeks earlier at North Sound Golf Club was one stroke back.
14-year-old Justin Hastings hit a solid 80, followed by fellow teenager Aaron Jarvis with 82. Brian Ross shot 84 to round out the top five on the day. Four golfers were tied with 86.
Two juniors were the only two females on the course. Holly McLean shot 95 and Lauren Needham hit 110.

The next round of qualifying takes place at North Sound Golf Club on 10 February, with an additional three rounds scheduled for 10, 21 and 28 March.
Golfers are vying for spots on the team, as the Cayman Islands Golf Association hosts the 2018 Caribbean Amateur Golf Championships in the summer.
