Sekt oder Selters Cup - Feb 2025
A Toast to Golf and Good Times!
Under near-perfect weather conditions, the Sekt oder Selters Cup took center stage at the Ayala Greenfield Golf Course, where golf skills were tested, champagne (Sekt) was popped, and good times flowed as freely as the drinks! 🍾⛳
Our generous host, Klaus Koppenhöfer, made sure that no glass (or spirit) was left empty, and a live band kept spirits high well beyond the final putt.
As always, Greenfield’s greens were flawless, but the seasonal winds had other plans, making for some tricky shot-making. Still, Dr. Tschangiz Scheybani, our reigning annual champion, proved once again that he thrives under pressure, clinching victory with 35 Stableford Points. Jerry Stehmeier (34 STP) took runner-up honors—for the second consecutive tournament (talk about consistency!). Gerhard Kropp also scored 34 points, securing third place after a countback. A tightly packed leaderboard saw five players finishing with 33 points.
In the special awards:
🏆 Low Gross: Joey Magcalyao (82) – precision at its finest!
💪 Longest Drive: Bob Sarangay – a rocket off the tee!
🎯 Most Accurate Drive: Steve Lawrence – straight as an arrow!
🎯 Closest to the Pin: Jomi Pegler – dialed in!
A huge THANK YOU to our host and generous sponsor, Klaus Koppenhöfer, whose fresh ideas and hospitality took this tournament to the next level. Kudos, Klaus! 👏👏
Until next time—may your drives be long, your putts be true, and your glass never empty! 🍾🏌️♂️
