The Fundacion MIR’s Magical Splendor for Life fundraising weekend wasn’t all about fashion (although that was my favourite part), on Saturday the 22nd of January a golf tournament was held at the La Romana Country Club. After a morning of heavy rain, we were afraid the tournament would be cancelled, but as they golfers were about to tee off the sun came out and we were all treated to yet another sunny day in the Caribbean!
Although many of the golfers told me they were playing ‘just for fun’ (you know who you are), everyone wants to win really so for the glory of the winners here are the results: Ladies Championship GROSS DIVISION Champion: Claudia Meloni NET DIVISION Champion: Mary Ledesma 41 Pts. Runner-Up: Marcella Bettoni Men’s Championship GROSS DIVISION Champion: Randy Jones NET DIVISION Champion: Miguel Cabral Runner-Up: Jean Pierre Santoni 3rd Place: Ricardo Rivero
