COFFS Harbour Golf Club’s Milla Adamson has had a day on the greens that every golfer dreams about.

At just eleven-years-old, she played in Coffs Harbour Golf Club’s eighteen-hole ladies’ competition on Wednesday, 4 January, and totally blitzed the field with a whopping 53 stableford points.

She had four pars in her round and also broke 100 strokes for the first time.

Milla only gained her Golf Australia handicap in July 2022, where she started on 44.5 and is already down to 31.2; quite an achievement considering she hasn’t played too many 18-hole rounds.

She started playing golf at age seven as part of an after school junior squad coached by Coffs Harbour Golf Club professionals Matt Allan and Brandon Connor.

Connor said that his young student was a natural.

“She is a stand out golf student who has great hand/eye coordination and is a natural player,” he said.

Milla’s mother Holly explained what made her daughter a natural on the greens.

“She’s a high achiever, so she puts in a lot of effort in whatever she does,” she said.

“She has a good work ethic and she’s constantly practicing and practicing the swinging movement.

“Her goal is to turn pro, and she set a goal at Christmas that by August she’d get her handicap down from 42 to 20, and in three weeks she is already at 29.”
