Simon and Tom’s success ensures their participation in the Audi quattro cup UK final, which is now in its 23rd year. That takes place at Bowood Golf and Country Club near Calne, Wiltshire on September 5.
From there the top-two “pairs” from the UK Final will go on to represent Great Britain in the Audi quattro Cup World Final which will be staged at the Trump National Golf Club, Los Angeles, between October 7-11.
