Probably the hottest weekend so far this summer, with hardly any wind the heat was really on the daytime players.  Congratulations to those players who were able to keep their cool and play some of their best golf this season, which naturally has resulted in some handicap reductions. 


On Sunday we witness a very proud moment for golf in Baku as Khalil Huseynov won the Azerbaijan International Golf Society event with a massive 43pts!!
