13-year-old Kartik Singh, who recently made history as the youngest ever to qualify for the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship in Australia, showcased his talent at the Selangor International Junior Golf Championship 2023 held at Seri Selangor Golf Club in Malaysia. Over the three rounds of the tournament, Kartik posted scores of -3, +2, and -2, finishing in an impressive 2nd place, just one shot behind the leader.

The event brought together over 100 participants, representing national teams from 10 countries, including Korea, Thailand, Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, China, Indonesia, and more. Notably, Kartik was once again the youngest participant in this competitive field.

In an exciting turn of events, Kartik's outstanding performance has earned him a coveted spot to compete in the US$175,000 PKNS Selangor Masters, an Asian Development Tour (ADT) event scheduled to take place at the same venue later this week.

Kartik Singh made his professional debut in Malaysia, carding rounds of 74-78 (+12). Unfortunately, he missed the cut by six strokes in this highly anticipated event.
