8 Year Old Pineo Wins One For Mom



8 year old Alex Pineo gave his mom a mother's day present she'll never forget. The youngster from Lakefield won the first event of the Canadian Junior Golf Season yesterday at Oakville Executive Golf Club.

Despite extremely cold and windy conditions Alex shot a four over par and won by one stroke over a field of 19 junior golfers from across Ontario.

This tournament was also a qualifying tournament for the 2009 World Junior Golf Championships in San Diego in July.

Alex is a grade 2 student at St. Paul's Elementary in Lakefield and is a member of the Katchawano Golf and Country Club.

Alex has been golfing since he was 3.
