Shanghai: The Shanghai Nordic Chamber of Commerce celebrated the arrival of spring in style by staging its annual golf party with a return to Silport.

Playing over Silport’s East and West layouts, Andreas Engstrom proved to be the top player on the day among the 84-man field made up of expatriates from Sweden, Finland, Norway and Denmark. Playing close to his 20.4 handicap, Engstrom carded a 19-over 91 to register a nett 70.6, winning the low nett honor. He also backed up his strong play off the tee in capturing the longest drive. For his efforts he received a gift pack courtesy of Scandinavian Airlines.

Mattias Arfeldt proved the strongest golfer in the field when he shot a 10-over 82 to claim the low gross prize. He was rewarded with a business class flight ticket from Shanghai to Helsinki courtesy of Finnair. Eeva Haarla-Perttu, the local representative for the Finnish national carrier, presented the prize to Arfeldt and then returned to the podium twice more when she claimed the best female player and a nearest-the-pin honor.

Among the other prize winners were Mathias Hallgren and Hannu Hakakari who won nearest-the-pin honors and Fredrik Karnsby who won the other long drive prize.
