EXPRESSO/BPI GOLF CUP

This weekend, Expresso/Bpi competition was held once again at Montebelo. Initially there were 26 teams, but only half of them and one drawn winner played the 2^nd round. Once again, the tradition/curse was maintained, as the teams with the best score failed big time. DELTA Q, who won easily on the 1^st day scoring 93 points, totally sank and on the 2^nd day scored 72 points; CALCITEC which had scored 83 points dropped to 80 points; and APARECIDA SEGUROS which had scored 81 dropped to 68 points. As the results of the 1^st day are only used as a way to enter the 2^nd day, all players started on even terms. MERCEDES-BENZ/SODICENTRO was the big winner scoring 84 points (80 on the 1^st day) with the pair M. Soares/C. Van Zeller scoring 44 points and J. Jones/João Martins scoring 40 points. To choose the 2^nd team playing in the Azores’ final competition, a play-off on the putting green (according to the regulations) was necessary among the three teams that scored 81 points. The BLACKETT team secured the 2^nd position, after its representative placed the ball 69 cm from the hole and BODYLAB (ball at 1.04 meters) came in 3^rd. This was followed by NMM (ball at 6,13 meter), CALCITEC, SOTARVIL and BPI-1 scoring 80 points, BETWEEN EQUATIONS and BPI-2 scoring 78 points, PARADOR OF CASA DA ÍNSUA scoring 75 points, DELTA Q scoring 72 points, MONTEBELO AGUIEIRA LAKE RESORT scoring 69 points, APARECIDA SEGUROS scoring 68 points, and MONTEBELO VISTA ALEGRE ÍLHAVO scoring 66 points. It is important to mention the excellent planning of Media Golf, as well as the flawless conditions of the Montebelo greens.
