The Brunswick Euro Challenge was once again held in Unterföhring just outside of Munich, Germany from the 13th of July until the 21st of July 2024 in the amazing Dream-Bowl Palace, which by many is regarded as the best and most beautiful bowling centre in Europe. Total of 749 entries and re-entries were bowled during the duration of the tournament by 228 players, where of 31 were women.
After three final steps it came down to a three player stepladder final. In the first game we had Noel Haglund from Sweden against Nu‘man Syahmi from Singapore. Syahmi came out on top with the score of 229 to Haglund‘s 193.
That set up a title match between Syahmi and Tobias Hogdin from Sweden, which meant that once again we would get a new winner on the european tour.
The final was very even and exciting and came down to the 10th frame, Hogdin needed a strike to seal his victory but only got 7 which opened the door for Syahmi, he however left a 10 pin which meant that Hogdin needed a spare and 9 to seal the victory. He picked up the spare and followed it up with a strike meaning he was the winner with the score of 236 to Syahmi‘s 233. Congratulations Tobias on your first title!
A huge contingent of Singapore women bowlers attended the tournament in Germany and the winner of the women‘s ranking was one of them, Shayna Ng, who finished 5th in the tournament.
