A leading Lancashire independent school is backing a former pupil for golfing glory after he made his debut at this year's The Open Championship.

Seb Cave, who studied at Rossall School from the ages of 16 to 18, was one of only nine amateurs to qualify for the tournament last month after progressing through its demanding 36-hole qualifying events five under par.

Prior to taking to the international stage, the 21-year-old honed his craft at the school's prestigious Golf Academy, which has consistently ranked among the top two centres in the UK.

Stuart Hemmings, Director of Golf at Rossall, said he was 'inspired' by Seb's debut and endorsed him for future successes.
