Alexei Butchart keeps the Strathmore flag flying in Moscow - update sent from his dad
Hi Iain,
The
final winter tournament at the Citygolf simulator centre Moscow was played today
- from the junior tees over the back 9 at the Tanah Merah Country Club
Singapore. After a nervy start - with a bogey on each of the first 3 holes -
Alexei settled down and parred five of the remaining holes with a birdie thrown
in for good measure. His score of +2 was enough for second place today -
meaning that over the 6 competitions Alexei finished with 3 wins and 3 second
places giving him first place in the final order of merit.
The
prizes are great - a year's membership at Citygolf simulator centre and
membership for summer 2014 of a new course just outside Moscow - the Links
National Golf Club. Above is a picture of Alexei receiving his new membership certificates from Will Bruce
- Director of Golf at CityGolf simulator centre.
It
is time for Alexei to get out on real grass - ranges here are open now and
courses start to open next week.
Rgds,
Graeme.
PS
- golf in Moscow is, as you know, incredibly expensive so needless to say I am a
happy dad - Alexei has saved me a lot of roubles.
