Cowra's Junior Golfers continue to go from strength to strength with David Kang the latest to make the NSW team after an outstanding sixth place recently at the NSW PSSA Golf Championships. Already known for it's golf pedigree with Karen and Mardi Lunn, Cowra may soon be synonymous with the name David Kang as well if the youngster continues on this trajectory. Kang, who has a history of good results, continues to improve with every outing. Just last year he won the B Grade Club Championship in Cowra where he plies his trade, three shots clear of Micahel Skinner and John Jensen. In 2022 he took out C Grade on the same course winning the matchplay title. He beat Mark Troth 9 and 8 that day. Kang is also is the 2022 and 2023 Cowra Junior Champion. Starting at two years old under the watchful eye of father, Han, who plays off six, Kang keeps growing as a player and is becoming one to watch at junior tournaments. He claimed 20th at the Australian Juniors at Royal Pines in Queensland and he has competed in the jack Newton Junior Golf event and US Kids Golf events throughout the country. He has won two US Kids events too at Springwood and Howlong golf clubs while also finishing third at the US Kids Golf Australian Masters Crown Plaza Hunter Valley event as well. He was runner up at the Kew Junior Masters and placed 10th at last years NSW Catholic Primary School golf trials whilst winning the nett event. Practicing every day with a dream to one day play with the pro's, Kang is on his way and even Cowra Pro, Tom Perfect pinches himself. "He's been playing since he was very young and playing junior clinics at the club not long thereafter," he said. The sky is the limit for David Kang!
