Vedika Bhansali made history by winning the 2025 US Kids Golf World Championship at Pinehurst, USA. After placing fourth last year, the 9-year-old Bengaluru prodigy returned stronger, posting scores of 33‑33‑32 with just one bogey in 27 holes. Calm under pressure, she edged Japan’s Emi Minami by one stroke, marking a new dawn for Indian junior golf with grit and grace.
