| Kyle Cox, 9, becomes Two-Time World Champion for US Kids Golf at Pinehurst. |
|
 Kyle Cox returned to Pinehurst, North Carolina, to compete in his 5th World Championship. He had won the Boys 6 in 2006 and came close last year with 2nd place. Now that he would be playing 18 holes each day and the longer distances, he was ready to reclaim the title. Playing at the beautiful Pinehurst No. 8 course, Kyle shot an opening round of 76 and was just 4 shots off the lead. On the second round, Kyle fired off a 69 and was one of only 2 golfers to shoot under par for the first two days. His second round score put him just 1 shot off the lead entering the final round.
On the last day, Kyle shot a 68 to reclaim the title of World Champion, by beating last year's winner Trent Phillips. Kyle was the only 9 year old in a field of 143 from all over the world, to shoot two rounds in the 60's. Kyle is trained by Coach Sukki Jang, director of teaching at Hank Haney's Vista Ridge Golf Ranch.
