On April 28th, 2004, Virpiniemi Golf‘s journey began. Today, marking two decades since its inception, the club pauses to reflect on its evolution and the vision for its future. In commemoration of its corporate anniversary, the crucial early figures and the pivotal moments that have defined Virpiniemi Golf are brought to the fore.

In an interview, Matti Heikkinen—one of the founding members and a long-standing supporter—offered insights into the journey. Heikkinen’s extensive involvement, right from partnering with architectural firm Uki Arkkitehdit Oy to shape the technical design of the course, demonstrates a deep-seated commitment to elevating the golfing experience.

Celebrating two decades of operation, Heikkinen expressed satisfaction with the progression of the course, noting the initial challenges encountered. ‘It’s incredibly rewarding to see how the course has developed and improved year after year. Establishing a presence as a prime golf course has been a significant achievement,’ he stated.

The inception stemmed from a collective desire among the founding members to enhance golf activities beyond just course management. Their original ideas found little traction with their previous affiliation, leading to the birth of their own golf club. Virpiniemi was chosen after careful consideration and navigating a maze of possibilities, finalizing after a years-long process.

Certainly, there were hurdles. The proposal met with resistance and numerous objections, yet the undeterred team foresaw the enduring joy it would bring to local golf enthusiasts.

Looking to the future, Heikkinen’s aspirations include maintaining the course’s condition and the eventual expansion by adding nine more holes. Such enhancements must seamlessly integrate without disturbing the existing layout, benefiting the broader golf community and particularly junior programs.

On this significant anniversary, Virpiniemi Golf extends heartfelt gratitude to all individuals and entities that have supported its remarkable twenty-year journey thus far, laying a foundation for continued success and development in Finnish golf.

Korineum Golf & Beach Resort once again played host to the 16th Kauko Cup, a tournament memorializing the vision of Finnish businessman and golf enthusiast Kauko Rastas. This year’s edition saw 65 contenders vying for the title, with an array of international participants converging from various countries, including Finland, to honor the legacy that helped birth the stunning course in Northern Cyprus.

Emerging victorious was Gareth Griffths, whose impressive 41 points earned him the top spot on the leaderboard. Griffths’ performance was the highlight of an event that equally celebrated the communal spirit of the golfing fraternity and the competitive zest that characterizes this annual gathering.

The trophy for Best Gross was clinched by Soner Yetkili, showcasing exceptional skill and consistency throughout the tournament. Süha Akpınar followed closely, securing the Second Place, with Lee Ivers rounding out the top three amidst intense competition.

In the special categories, James Jang took home the Longest Drive Men’s title, while Pirjo Kortesoja reaffirmed her prowess with the Longest Drive amongst the ladies.
