Tripathi and Hesson Impress in July BMW Rivoli Medal at the Emirates Golf Club

On one of the hottest and most humid days of the summer so far Dalip Tripathi and Eddie Hesson shone in the July BMW Rivoli Monthly Medal. Tripathi the reigning singles matchplay champion produced a remarkable performance over the Faldo course and returned a net 67 to clinch Division A (handicap 0-15) by two strokes from Eric Koeman. The highlights of Tripathi’s gross 76, 4-over par, was a hatrick of birdies coming on the 3rd, 9th and 12th holes.

Eddie Hesson coped admirably with the climate by firing a gross 72, net 71, good enough to give him best gross of the day and third in Division A.

Hiromasa Tsuji took top prize in Division B (handicap 16-28) following his net 73. Madhav Nair claimed runners-up place with a 75 one clear of Alex Wonyop Kim in third.
