13-year-old Kartik Singh becomes youngest to make cut at Asia-Pacific Amateur Championships

NEW DELHI: Thirteen-year-old Kartik Singh from India has made history by becoming the youngest player to make the cut at the prestigious Asia-Pacific Amateur Championships. While Singh's hopes of securing a historic win were dashed after a challenging round, his remarkable achievement stands as a testament to his budding prowess.

Kartik Singh commenced the tournament with an opening round of seven-over-par 78 and followed it up with a 72 at the Royal Melbourne Golf Club's demanding course. At just 13 years, nine months, and 22 days old, Singh's feat surpasses the record set by China's Guan Tianlang, who achieved a similar milestone at the age of 14 in 2012.
