Just ordered my ticket for the final day of the Deutsche Bank Players Championship in Gut Kaden, Hamburg. Believe it or not, this will only be the second pro golf tournament i’ll be watching, the first one was ages ago (I didn’t play golf back then): the German Masters at Golf-Club Solitude in Stuttgart in 1992. My dad got tickets back then and I went with my mother. I still remember following Bernhard langer around the course.

So I am definitely looking forward to watching the pro’s there. Sergio Garcia recently confirmed his start, adding up to the respectful starter list.

Anyone out there also attending? In case you want to meet up, drop me an e-mail.

Back in April I wrote about the upcoming Matchplay League Germany, now it is up and running and we are heading for our first match.
