We received very good numbers to start and this will continue, the numbers are assured to go up in the coming months. The Ladies event too we have had more than 20 numbers which was a very good sign for the future.

“We are very thankful to our sponsor for this event Wurth and we will do our level best for the game to grow in the Hill Country. We have golf clinics at the club. They are allowed to play and practice on designated days. Further, we want to start Junior Medal from December 2022.
