12th WMC Golf - Münster (GER) - Day 5
MÜNSTER (GER) – The last round of the male and female competition of the 12th WMC Golf took place yesterday on the Muenster-Tinnen golf course.

With the fourth place of Nicole Johnson, the US ladies team also managed to win the gold medal of the team event ahead of France, silver medallist and the Netherlands, bronze medallist.
The last round of the male competition was very interesting as 4 athletes could still claim the gold medal. But Nick Bachem (GER) was quite strong and didn’t bow to the pressure.
