SCCH Golf 2011 - They are all ”winners” !
On Saturday, the 1st of October, under a clear sky and in bright sunshine, the SCCH Annual Golf Tournament was held at the nice “Old Lake Golf Club”, in Tata.
This was the 16th SCCH competition in a row , in combination with the “Two in one – Nordic Golf Tournament”, organized in cooperation with the Finnish Business Guild, for the 4th time.
Nearly 20 players, from 4 nations (Sweden, Hungary, Finland and Estonia) were struggling for almost 5 hours in the unexpected autumn heat.
The players in the SCCH team had to fight for defending the triumph from last year, when Leif Andersson (Sweden/Guest) conquered the trophy of the Nordic Championship.
However, this year we had to face the defeat when Pekka Markkanen (Finland) won back the glorious title “Nordic Champion”, to the Finn´s.
Severi Savolainen (Finland) won the price for “Longest drive”, on hole 15, (171 m) and Tamás Gönczi (SCCH) for “Nearest to pin”, on hole 8, (3,1 m).
Attila Vass (Electrolux) did it again !, by winning the 16th SCCH Golf Tournament he can call himself “SCCH Champion 2011”and Attila is now the first SCCH player to win the present “Challenge Throphy” for the 2nd time. “Only one more win to go and the trophy is yours, Attila!”
As 2nd “winner”, we congratulate Gunnar Sjökvist (Ericsson) as well as the 3rd “winner”, Leif Andersson (Sweden/Guest).
In the ladies competition, we pay tribute to Monica Doverhagen (Sweden /Guest), as “1st Lady” of the competition.
