Mohammad Al Musharrakh recorded back-to-back victories in the UAE Nationals Monthly Tournament, organised by the Emirates Golf Federation (EGF), to consolidate his position at the top of the Order of Merit standings. Al Musharrakh carded an impressive 40 points at Yas Links Abu Dhabi to beat his nearest challenger Ahmad Khalifa by one point. Sohail Al Marzouqi finished third with 38 points. Khalid Yousuf, who featured in the UAE team that won a gold medal in the recent Arab Games in Doha, made his presence felt, winning the best gross prize with a solid level-par 72. Intense competition Competition was equally intense and close in Division A, where Saleh Al Ameri emerged victorious with 35 points, while Abdullah Al Muharrami reigned supreme in Division B, winning the title on a countback after he also signed off with 35 points. Al Musharrakh, whose three sons — Abdullah, Ahmad and Hassan — have won many laurels for the UAE national teams, is himself becoming a force to reckon with. He won the opening event of the Nationals Monthly Tournament series held at Al Ain Equestrian, Shooting and Golf Club with 44 points and kept the momentum going with another inspired performance to top the Order of Merit with a 100 per cent record. Saeed Al Budoor, general manager of the Emirates Golf Federation, congratulated Al Musharrakh: "Age is just a number. If you are good enough, you are good enough. At 50-something he is giving the youngsters a run for their money and that shows how hard he is working on his game. "Once again we had a good turnout and the competition in each division was close. I would like to thank all players and the management and staff of Yas Links Abu Dhabi for their support in making the event a great success."
