1. Emilio, Teresa and Deborah, you won this year’s *Asterisk*-series! It is the longest series of tournaments of the EU-Golfclub, starting in April and ending in September, with 18 events! What motivated you to take part in this competition? Emilio: What I like about the Asterisk competition is that it's an annual championship, a league that lasts an entire season. It's not always the best who wins, but often the most consistent. Teresa: The good weather really starts in April, and after a long winter with less frequent golf, I always look forward to playing in good weather. There are more competitions at the EU golf club during this period and if I'm available, I'll be happy to play.
