Hickory golf is spreading slowly over the world and in 2019 it was the 15th holding of The World Hickory Open which was held over the world famous Gullane and Kilspindie golf links in Scotland. Our very own Golf Manager David Kirkham finished in 5th place out of around 130 players. In 2015 David was also Swedens first ever hickory player to be invited to compete in Philadelphia USA for The World Hickory Match-play Championship and was in fact leading after two rounds before falling back a little. Yes, so indeed hickory is spreading all over the world.
In Sweden we have our very own National Championship which is know as the largest hickory competition in the world. Again David has done very well in this event. A silver medal in 2023 and a bronze medal at this years championship. The gold is the only one left and the hopefully he will win it soon!
Our society hope to find many new hickory players who will join us and enjoy the experience. Any questions you may have then just drop me an e-mail at info@hultagk.se or call David on 033-204340, 0705-204366.
