Ross Ramkissoon turned the ta­bles on a com­pet­i­tive men’s field on the fi­nal day of the Pointe-a-Pierre Golf Club Three-Day Golf Cham­pi­onship Open in San Fer­nan­do on Sun­day (Jan­u­ary 25), bring­ing the cur­tain down on a high­ly com­pet­i­tive tour­na­ment that of­fered play­ers the op­por­tu­ni­ty to earn valu­able World Am­a­teur Golf Rank­ing (WA­GR) points.

The cham­pi­onship flight de­liv­ered the dra­ma many had an­tic­i­pat­ed, as young Ramkissoon pro­duced a com­posed fi­nal round to edge de­fend­ing cham­pi­on Liam Bry­den by a sin­gle stroke.

Ramkissoon fin­ished with a three-round ag­gre­gate of 217 to lift the over­all tro­phy, while Bry­den set­tled for sec­ond on 218, and Ross Cabral com­plet­ed the podi­um in third place with a to­tal of 233. Eleven of the na­tion’s best play­ers, in­clud­ing the sports gen­er­al sec­re­tary, Wayne Bap­tiste, who fin­ished fourth with a score of 234, chal­lenge each oth­er for ho­n­ours.

In the First Flight, which had 16 play­ers, an­oth­er ris­ing tal­ent emerged vic­to­ri­ous. Adam Green mount­ed a late surge, over­turn­ing the overnight deficit to se­cure the win with a three-day score of 245. Shi­va Ar­joon­s­ingh fin­ished close be­hind on 246, while ear­ly pace-set­ter Bri­an Fares round­ed out the top three with 247.

The Ladies’ Flight al­so pro­duced stand­out per­for­mances across the three days from the nine par­tic­i­pants. Vic­to­ria Seenath cap­tured top ho­n­ours with an im­pres­sive score of 238, over­tak­ing first-round leader Is­abel­la Ramdeen, who fin­ished sec­ond with 251. Promis­ing young­ster Hai­ley Layne claimed third place with a to­tal of 254.

Com­pe­ti­tion in the Sec­ond Flight, which field­ed the most play­ers (23), saw Sham­mi Seep­er­sad emerge vic­to­ri­ous with a two-day score of 166, with overnight leader Ku­mar Emanuel sec­ond with 169, fol­lowed by Ravi Ma­haraj third with 171. The best nett of 68 was record­ed by Navin Dook­er­an, who was sixth over­all.

The Third Flight, which fea­tured 21 play­ers, end­ed with Edi­son Sagram se­cur­ing first place with 176.

A count­back was re­quired to sep­a­rate sec­ond and third, with Manichan Roopc­hand edg­ing Dami­an Sar­wan for sec­ond af­ter both post­ed iden­ti­cal scores of 179. Sar­wan post­ed the best nett score of 70. In the Mas­ters Flight for play­ers aged 70 and over, ex­pe­ri­ence proved de­ci­sive as Ahamad Ali claimed the ti­tle with a two-round to­tal of 157.

Fabi­an Rock­er Lee Foon fin­ished sec­ond on 161, fol­lowed by Pran Ra­jen­dranath in third with 164.
