Although the weather was not always at its best this year, this had no impact on the popularity of our SWISS Golf Traveller Trophy tournaments. Despite the storm-related cancellation of the Lenzerheide tournament scheduled for 17 July, participants were still able to demonstrate their golfing skills at five other qualifying tournaments. The four top-ranked finishers for each handicap category and the gross winner qualified for the finals at the Küssnacht am Rigi golf course on 7 August. Fortunately, the sunshine that day was as bright as the outstanding performances.
Our warmest thanks to go the golf courses for the excellent teamwork and to our long-term sponsors Amercian Express, Avis and Athleticum, whose support played a key role in the successful staging of the Trophy tournaments. Again this year, SWISS Golf Traveller staff on location were outfitted with golf wear from Clover, the Swiss golf clothing company.
The SWISS Golf Traveller team thanks all participants and looks forward to welcoming you at SWISS Golf Traveller Trophy tournaments next year. The tournament dates for the 2010 Trophies will appear in the February 2010 issue of the SWISS Golf Traveller E-Newsletter or on swiss.com/golf.
