The 2016 international merit round, played at Son Quint , Mallorca was won by PK..
A dry day, but wet course proved to be easy for the 6 handicapper and he walked in with 37 points on the last day of the Mallorca tour. Well done PK.

Through some torrential rain, thunder and Lightning and a generally wet Tour, a modified Cookie Cup was one by Lord
With the second round effectively being wiped out by continued storms and rain, making the course and greens unplayable, unless you took shelter and waited for the water to subside…the Cookie Cup was adjusted to take only two scores – one from days 1 and 2, plus the third days score from what became the Merit round at Son Quint.
