Chaturvedi Veterans Tournament 2016.
The 2016 Chaturvedi Veterans Tournament, inaugurated in
2013, was held over two days; Tuesday 7 and Thursday 9 June, on the ESTEC
course. The format is quite demanding; medal stroke play with handicap
adjustment, the winner scoring the lowest net total over the 36 holes. This year, 20 players participated.
The weather Gods were very kind with a temperature of
around 20 degrees on both days, largely blue skies and only a slight breeze.
The course was in excellent condition.
This year, the winner was Joe Pereira with a net score
over the two days of 121 strokes net. Second was Tony van Rosmalen with 124,
third: Brian Taylor with 129, fourth: Reno Harboe Sorensen, also with 129, but
with a higher score on day 2. Full results are given in the accompanying table.
Our grateful thanks again go to Beena and Dinesh for
providing nibbles and drinks on both afternoons in the Check-In and for the
organization of the tournament dinner and presentation at ‘Het Zuiderbad’ on
Thursday 9 June, including the provision of the Prosecco and the first wine.
