New Zealand Amateur Daniel Hillier has won the Australian Junior Championship in dominant fashion today at the Ulverston Golf Club in Tasmania.
Wellington's finest young talent has yet again produced the goods in what some would call his best yet after winning by an incredible six shots.
Hillier trailed fellow Kiwi Henry Spring by one shot entering the final round, to come home in Tiger-like fashion by making birdies on 16 and 17 to add to his convincing amateur win.
Spring sadly dropped out of contention early, but still can take a lot away from a great campaign across the ditch.
With Hillier's victory comes the chance to play in the big dance, the Emirates Australian Open. He no idea this was part of the winning package when he waved to the galleries post victory, so was taken aback by the extra achievement. This tournament has seen the world's best over the past few years including Jordan Spieth, Rory McIlroy and Adam Scott who are likely to return again.
