On this lovely spring day, it’s a great pleasure to attend the tournament – amateur by status, yet highly professional by nature’.
Dainis Rozenfelds, Head of Wealth Management at EXANTE, actually tried himself in the game and made some great shots!
Guntars Pupelis also thanked the organisers and participants for this tremendous event. The finalists got their tickets to the finals of Audi Quattro Cup 2019 that will be hosted by Kitzbühel, Austria, on September 22—26, 2019.
