Sixteen-year-old Sudbrook Moor member Daniel Agapito has taken giant strides over the past month.
A taste of the big time came his way as a result of outstanding junior achievements nationally.
Taking first place overall in the Under 16 age group in the Robert Rock series final at The Belfry gave Daniel the opportunity to return during the week of the Nick Faldo British Masters when the DP World Tour best golfers descend on The Belfry.

The invitation, as Under 16 champion, was to compete with tour professionals and celebrities on the day of the Pro-Am.
Daniel joined a team led by multiple DP World Tour winner, Calum Hill, along with two other junior age group champions, making up the team of four.
His visit was accompanied by his parents who had cancelled their holiday to enable Daniel to accept this wonderful invitation.
Sudbrook Moor professional Ben Hutton, who is Daniel’s coach, had the privilege of caddying for him and to witness his talent and great potential in full force.
From the field of junior competitors, Daniel won the longest drive challenge on hole number 11 and took home the top prize donated by one of the week’s sponsors.
Daniel, at 16, is already playing on a handicap index of plus one.
He also travelled with his dad, Christian, to play in a junior tournament at St Andrews in Scotland where he finished second in the Under 16 group.
