Alan & Sue Kilminster Outshoot A Field Of 100 At Jumeirah Golf Estates
(Dubai, UAE) – The Jumeirah Golf Estates (JGE) hosted the final leg of the Emirates Golf Federation (EGF) Summer Swing on September 25, 2015, sponsored by Rotana Hotels and GolfLan. As summer is ending and fall is upon us, 100 players (50 teams) took to the Earth Course for a Pairs Texas Scramble shootout.
Jumeirah Golf Estates, the home of the DP World Tour Championship – the final tournament of the European Tour’s Race to Dubai, was the perfect venue for this talented field. With two courses and a newly renovated clubhouse JGE is a golfers paradise.
After a fantastic day of golf, Alan and Sure Kilminster came out on top of the field by shooting a Net Score of 52. The winners received trophies and a 1-night stay at a Rotana Hotels property.
After a count back and finishing in Second Place was Joseph Ridley and Philip Wooler. The pair shot a 56 net score. The Second Place received a lunch for 2 at a Rotana Hotels property.
Also shooting a 56 Net Score and winning Third Place on a count back was Roger Flemming and Stuart Connor. Third place winners won a lunch for 2 at a Rotana Hotels property.
JGE offered vouchers for the Fourth and Fifth Place teams. Coming in Fourth Place after a count back was Peter and Anne Bauer with a Net Score of 56. Rounding off the top five on a count back was Eric and Melissa Smith with Net Score of 56.
There were also four on-course prizes given out for the Nearest to the Pin competitions that took place on all four challenging Par 3’s. Nearest to the Pin wasn’t challenging enough of a challenge for one of the junior competitors. Junior Golfer Hoshi Yadav got a Hole-In-One on Hole 4. Nicolas Bruylants won on Hole 6, Colin Gow won on Hole 13, and Jeremiah Kaplan won on Hole 17.
The EGF would like to send a special thanks to the Official Sponsors of the EGF Summer Swing,
Rotana Hotels and Resorts and GolfLan who provided valuable prizes and giveaways for the players. The EGF would also like to thank the JGE and their fine staff for running this event at a top level.
