Damai Indah wins interclub golf

JAKARTA (JP): Boyke Supian sank lackluster double pars three times, but his partnership with Damai Indah teammates Daniel Baladhika and Eddy Sutrisno proved to be superior at the 18th Johnnie Walker interclub golf championships on Sunday.

The trio from Jakarta scored 199 to win the trophy and tickets to the International Golf Club Championships in Taipei to be held on Nov. 2 and Nov. 3. The Kendari Sanggoleo club, from Southeast Sulawesi, finished second and Bogor golf club finished third.

"It's a surprise. We never thought we could win this tournament after the three below-standard shots," Boyke said afterwards.

Eighteen of the 30 clubs in the Indonesian Golf Association took part in the tournament which was held at the Pondok Indah golf course. (amd)
