Glenlivet Office Putting Challenge

What do you do in winter just before Christmas before a golfers life gets too dull? Right, you play golf in whatever location possible. So, thanks to the Glenlivet Office Putting Challenge we converted the office today into a golf course. With the help of some accessories like a putting cup, putter and three pieces of felt (tee box, water hazard and bunker) we set up five different holes that made up our office golf course. Anything from a par3 to a par5.

Proper fan support was provided and my co-workers experienced a hard battle for the top two qualifying spots for the north germany regional qualifyer in Hamburg coming february. I had the lead for the first two holes, at the third hole we had a two-stroke-swing and Christoph took over. On the fourth I was able to recapture the lead by one stroke and despite a desastrous performance on the final hole – a par 10 as it seemed to us – I held onto the lead and won by one stroke over Christoph. We won ourselves a bottle of Glenlivet whilst all starters received their miniature bottle as a tee gift.
Christoph and I will now face the regional qualifyer before the grand finale in Berlin at the end of march. Plenty of time to practice then.
