Andy Hatcher will be heading to Al Hamra on October 5 for the Golden Ball Grand Final after scoring 30 points in a terrific round of golf whilst battling challenging conditions at Sharjah Wanderers Golf Club.
Organisers decided to reduce the event to a 12-hole competition due to the intense heat and humidity and it was Hatcher who came out on top pipping Doug Cameron to top spot by one point in a thrilling day on the only sand golf course in Dubai.
A total of seventeen took to the field to try and win a place in this year’s Grand Final which will see amateurs battle it out to try and book one of three places to play with the European Challenge Tour Pros in the Ras Al Khaimah 2017 Golf Challenge Pro-Am.
“Having just returned from my Summer leave I was certainly not expecting great things from my golf in my first tournament back on sand” said Hatcher.
“I am certainly looking forward to the Grand Final on the 5th October and hopefully my form will continue to hold up. I would like to thank all those involved in organising the Ras Al Khaimah 2017 Golf Challenge and trust that I can do Sharjah Wanderers proud in the Grand Final.”
