Daniel Augustus is just one step away from completing a prestigious golfing treble.

The Riddell's Bay golfer added the Bermuda Amateur Stroke Play Championship to his burgeoning collection of trophies on Saturday and immediately set his sights on winning the Graham Lynn Memorial Trophy at this year's Bermuda Open.

Tariqah Walikraam meanwhile picked up the women's title for the second year running, posting an 18-over par 228 to beat nearest challenger Ann Symonds by 15 shots. Tuckers Point employee Walikraam was the only female golfer to shoot three successive rounds in the 70s, opening with a first round 74, and then carding 77 on the last two days.

Given to the lowest placed amateur at the Bermuda Open, the Graham Lynn Memorial Trophy would cement Augustus' standing as the best young amateur golfer on the Island, after he stormed to a 12-shot triumph at Tuckers Point last weekend.

Having already claimed the Goslings Invitational title, Augustus said the Stroke Play Championship was the one he really wanted, and compared it to winning a major.

"It feels real good to have got my hands on the trophy," said Augustus. "I was fourth in my first year, second last year, and I had a feeling this would be my year. I'm really happy, it's a very prestigious thing to have your name on.

"I really wanted this on my resume, it's the biggest competition on the Island. I really wanted to win, for me it's like winning a major."

Augustus took a five-shot lead into Saturday's final round, and while his steady golf saw him to a level-par 70 for a final score of five-over par, the rest of the field crumbled around him. Jun Hardart, who led for the first two rounds, collapsed trying to chase down Augustus, and shot a final round seven-over 77 to finish third on 17 over.

Mark Phillips' final round 76 was enough to see him post a 17 over total for his four rounds, and take second place on retrogression.

Only Jarryd Dillas could match Augustus' final round 70, and it was too little, too late for Dillas, who finished at 20 over par.

"I hit the ball really well on the final day," said Augustus. "I just wanted to hit the greens, two putt, and have a solid round. I knew I just had to get them coming after me. If I played solid golf they would have to do something really special to catch me, and they couldn't."

From competing against each other Augustus and Dillas will now team up to form part of a strong Bermuda men's squad for this month's Island Games. The pair will link up with Camiko Smith and Damian Palanyandi and Augustus is confident that the Island can put on a strong showing.

"This is the first time I have gone (to the Games), but it is a real honour to represent your country," said Augustus. "It's another great thing to be doing and I'm really looking forward to it.

"I have no clue what the teams are going to be like that we will come up against, but our team have been out practising a lot together. We've had a lot of talks, there is a real cool team spirit at the moment, and I know if we play our game then we will be tough to beat."

Walikraam will also be travelling to the Island Games as part of a women's team that includes Katrin Burnie, Ebonie Burgess and Katyna Rabain.
