MORE than 80 players battled their way around Awali Golf Club’s course on National Day to congratulate the winner of the Korean Cup competition.
The Stableford competition, in its fourth year this season, was sponsored as usual by Club members Kwang Bok Kim and Sang Oak Nam.
With it being National Day, many players chose a red and white theme for their attire, with one member also extending this colour scheme for his postplay wig.
Last year’s outing was special as all the prize winners returned with the same score - 40 points. However, the blustery conditions this time around meant no-one achieved that score.
The winner, Nathan Prince, returned home with 39 points. Losing on count back with the same score was Saad Al Binkhalil, with Sun Kyu Kwak and Adel Al Gaoud in third and fourth places both with 38 points.
Paul Anderson secured the prize for fifth place with 36 points, five other players losing out on count back. Prizes were presented by Sang and Kwang, comprising beautiful glass trophies, with the sponsors remaining true to form by providing a Korean style cuisine theme and handing out Korean pears to others not in the main prizes.
Tournament Director was Rashid Al Qutami with assistance from Serwin Rampersad.
