Mike Mangal was a force to be reckoned with at the weekend as he walked away with the Trophy Stall golf tournament title at the Lusignan Golf Course, East Coast Demerara.
The victory was his second in as many weekends, having copped top honours in the DemLife sponsored tournament.
Batting intermittent rain and a competitive field of golfers, Mangal stood form against 19 other players, coming out on top with Net 68.
The results for the tournament were as follows:
0-36 Flight
1st– Mike Mangal (Handicap 68, Gross 76, Net 68)
2nd– Shanella London (Handicap 10, Gross 80, Net 70)
3rd– Gavin Todd (Handicap 21, Gross 91, Net 70)
Best Gross- Mike Mangal (76)
Nearest-to-the-Pin and Longest Drive- Rakesh Harry
Speaking on his second consecutive victory, Mangal said: “In terms of today’s game I am very happy as I played well today and did better than last week. As it relates to the points system I have 20 points now, so I am working hard to be selected to go to the Suriname Open. The course was tough today, especially with the rain that came. But in the end it was okay and come next week I will try my best to make it three tournaments in a row.”
Sharing his view as well was the Lusignan Golf Club’s Public Relations Officer Paton George, who noted that it has been 20 years that Trophy Stall has been sponsoring tournaments at the club.
He explained that the club is extremely grateful for the continued support as he related that it is sponsors like Trophy Stall that encourages other sponsors to come on board at the Lusignan Golf Club.
“Trophy Stall is a longtime friend to golf and all sporting activities in Guyana. The sponsor is committed to continuing to be a part of the growth of golf in Guyana. Trophy Stall is the leading seller of a massive variety of trophies and sporting memorabilia in Guyana and more recently, at a new store in the borough of Queens, New York,” the Club said.
