Lusignan Golf Course (LGC) President, Patanjilee Persaud, won the B Flight category of the Suriname Open golf competition last weekend.

Two other Guyanese Avinash Persaud and Shanella London were second overall in the best gross male and female categories.

Sabi Dhori was second in her flight and Eureka Giddings won the longest drive.

Speaking at the end of the tournament LGC’s Persaud, said, “You know, I would say golf has become so competitive. As for my performance, I thought it was excellent. I put a lot into it. But I really feel that the challenge of the greens was much more. I’m sorry, we didn’t retain the championship trophy for Flights A and C. However, I am still grateful that we were able to claim second place in those categories.”
