Cascio and Eppelstun Claim Victory in Goulburn
(2:00pm - Sunday 19th November, 2023)
Sam Cascio (The Australian) has come from behind to win the Brett Ogle Junior Masters in a nail-biting finish, while Sophie Eppelstun (Catalina) held on to win her first JNJG Junior Masters title.
Cascio began the final round three shots behind overnight leader Harry Whitelock (Royal Canberra). The pair both made moves early Sunday morning, sharing the lead at 7 under at one stage. They had close company throughout their round with Charlie Peng (Avondale) and Liam Jordan (Manly) both going low and shooting their best rounds recording 5 under. Cascio held his nerve on the final hole finishing with a par and a one shot victory, adding to his growing list of Junior Masters titles.
Catalina junior, Sophie Eppelstun claimed her first Junior Masters title to kick off the 2024 season. After sharing the overnight lead with Aaniyah Bhola (Concord), Eppelstun put together a stellar front nine which included five birdies. Eppelstun went one better than her last start as she bowed out in the play off at her home Junior Masters. A deserving winner, who fell just short on numerous occasions last season has gone all the way in Goulburn.
