Mathematics ... or golf?

GOLF DREAM: Jade Deane, 13, is a fairway in front with a handicap of six.

By MOYNA BANNERJEE

Jade Deane, a student in Year 8 at Brigidine College, St Ives, has achieved a goal that most new golfers can only dream about.

Jade was introduced to golf by her father two years ago, as an activity that would give her something to do every Sunday.

She began in the junior cadets program at Bayview Golf Club on the Northern Beaches with a handicap of 45, the maximum for women golfers.

Now, two years later, she is the envy of most golfers.

Jade plays off a handicap of six.
