A gifted six⁃year⁃old golfing star from Australia has been crowned(加冕)the best junior golfer in the world.
Zac Wolfe is turning heads around the globe after winning the U.S. Kids Golf World Championships in North Carolina this month—the latest step towards his Masters⁃jacket dream. He claimed the boys' six⁃and⁃under title with a score of seven⁃under, beating a field of 73 elite (精英) junior golfers. The tournament, held each August in the world⁃famous Pinehurst Resort, is considered the pinnacle (顶峰)for junior golfers.
Zac is from the Melbourne suburb of Caulfield South and is a member of Hunt⁃ingdale Golf Club, where he is known as“the King of Huntingdale”. The youngster has already achieved a long list of achieve⁃ments. As a two⁃year⁃old, he won the World's Best Kids'Golf Swing Competition and at three won the US Kids Tour Local Series in Melbourne to qualify for the world championships. Now as a world champion, Zac is focused on continuing his golfing skills step by step.“Dad and I have a ladder. On top of the ladder is the Masters jacket. That's what I want to win,like Tiger,”Zac said.
Zac's dad, Jeremy, said his son was learning lessons in commitment (忠诚),confidence and making friends with kids from different countries through his golf.“I'm just so proud. I think what he's done is so cool. Whether he continues with golf or whatever he does,it's a great set of expe⁃riences for a kid to go through.He loves be⁃ing out there and he's so creative.His short game is just extraordinary.It comes through so much hard work,”Mr Wolfe said.
