Who am I (English)

Vincent (54 years)

 

 

 

I have been playing golf for many years now. But before this, only just a couple of times a year, mainly just for pleasure. Although I have always been reasonably talented. But more and more, family and friends started asking me; “Why don’t you get an official handicap, so you can finally participate in some contests and tournaments?”

No sooner said than done, by the end of 2015 I have started to get a registered handicap. And once started I was hit by the golfing virus.
And with a lot of practicing (driving range), a lot of playing (finally being allowed to play in contests and tournaments) and  supporting lessons of 2 Top Pro’s (Brian and Stuart), in less than 3 years my handicap has gone from 54 to 12.

The Result: This year I have been invited to participate, for Suriname, in the World Amateur Golfers Championship from 26th October – 3rd November 2024 in Phuket (Thailand).
I’ll be playing in the 3rd category (handicap 10.5 – 15.4).
This championship will be played just like a professional tournament, 4 match days and 2 practice days. And just like the professionals, we only play ‘stroke play’ (real golf).

So in total 6 golfing days in a row, 6 days competing against players of the same level, from across the world. This is a “once in a lifetime experience”, I am really excited to get the chance to compete on this level in a sport that I love.

The only thing stopping me is the expense, for I have to pay for it all myself (travel, accommodation, team wear, entry fee, and so on).

So my one question to you:
“Do you want see me battle in this world championship?!”
