Twelve-year-old golfer, Javier Rogers-Pou is a Kaikohe kid with his eye set on the prestigious Masters Tournament.
He already has a handicap of eight but it's an expensive sport so his whanau spends every spare minute fundraising by selling Māori design inspired golf gloves. When they were noticed by comedian Joe Daymond and he shared the story, it went viral.
Then just yesterday, Javier was invited to the Chasing the Fox tournament which features famous New Zealanders and hole number three was dedicated to him.
Mihingarangi speaks to Javier and his mum, Emily about their whirlwind success.
