Win caps fine month for Kurdi

AMMAN — May was a month to remember for Jordan’s up and coming golf star Shergo Kurdi, according to the Jordan Olympic Committee News Service.

Playing in a host of tournaments close to his base in southern England, the 13-year-old secured top two finishes in senior events to show he is hitting peak form as we head into the summer season.

This weekend he was runner-up in the men’s 36-hole Worman Sword tournament after rounds of 72 and 76, and showed no signs of fatigue the following day in winning the Sunbury Open with a superb round of 68.

This follows a second placed finish last week at the Wisley Golf Club Championship for men and a fourth place at the Worpelson Championship earlier in the month.
