English U18 boys' stroke-play champion Patrick Kelly from Lincolnshire has made a flying start to the Junior Orange Bowl boys' championship over the Donald Ross-designed Biltmore course at Coral Gables, a suburb of Miami, Florida.
Kelly, pictured, beaten in the final of the 2011 British boys championship, shot a six-under-par 65 to open up a first-round lead of two shots from Matthew Marquez (Trinidad) and Jonah Texeira (California).
South African Haydn Porteous, a well known name in this country through the SGU national squad trips to South Africa, is lying joint fourth on 68.
Patrick Kelly, born in 1994, is a member at Boston West Golf Club, Boston in Lincolnshire.
