St Ivo Academy pupil Harry Burgess retained both the Junior British Masters Championship and St Andrews WAGR World Series titles during a remarkable 2026 campaign.

Harry has lowered his handicap to just 0.9 and travelled more than 30,000 miles for competitions across 11 counties and several countries.

His season began with victory while representing St Ivo Academy at the Cambridgeshire Schools Championships, before he went on to represent Cambridgeshire at under-14, under-16 and under-18 level.

The school has supported Harry’s development by allowing him to leave on Tuesday afternoons for intensive technical and fitness training.

One of his biggest successes came at The Belfry, where he successfully defended the Junior British Masters title on the famous Brabazon Course against young golfers from across the UK.

Harry then travelled to St Andrews and retained his WAGR World Series title against competitors from across Europe.

The 54-hole competition ended with one of his best rounds, as he carded a gross 69 and recorded an albatross on the par-five third hole.

He also had a putt to complete the front nine in 29 shots, which would have equalled the course record.

His other achievements include becoming under-14 county champion and St Ives Junior Club Champion.

He also secured three national tour titles and won the Andy Finnigan Trophy after recording a gross 66 at John O’Gaunt.

Harry finished second in the National Tour Order of Merit and is now preparing for further competitions in Spain, Ireland, Wales and Scotland.

He is also due to compete at the World Championships later in the year.

Harry’s ambitions extend beyond his continuing junior career, with the youngster hoping eventually to combine his education with developing his golf overseas.

After completing his studies at St Ivo Academy, he hopes to secure a golf scholarship in America and continue playing at the highest level possible.
