While arshvant

The US Kids Malaysian Championships: Arshvant Srivastava of India blazed the Glenmarie Golf and Country Club with the day’s best card of 3-under 69 in the Boys 13-14 age category on the opening day of the US Kids Malaysian Championships.

It was a fine opening day for the seven-member Indian squad. While Arshvant led his group, four other Indians were in Top-3 after the first day of the three-day event which carries WAGR points and grants Priority points for entry into US Kids World Championships and European Championships later in the year.

The 14-year-old Arshvant, whose coach Amit Dubey was with him, shot 69 with five birdies against two bogeys, the second of which came on the tricky 18th hole at the 6,256-yard course. He birdied second, sixth, ninth, 13th and 17th, while he dropped shots on eighth and 18th.
