Mikhaela Fortuna fired a final round 68 for a three-day total of 208 to win with one stroke advantage in the 12th 100Plus Malaysian Junior Golf Open Championship held last December 14 at Glenmarie Golf and Country Club in Shah Alam, Malaysia. Fortuna had an inconsistent play during the first two days, scoring an even-par 72 in the opening round and came to within one in the second round with her 68, against Malaysian Winnie Ng Yu Xuan. But the young Filipina junior golfer fired a four-under 68 in the last day to finish with eight-under-par 208 and win by one stroke over local bet in the girl’s division. Yu Xuan settled at second position with 209 followed by another local bet Natasha Andrea Oon with 218. The tournament is considered as Malaysia’s premier junior golf tournament that featured some of the region’s best juniors golfers.
