Kristófer Orri T-7 at the Pars Junior in Orlando
Three of the most promising young golfers of GKG (Golf Club of Kópavogur and Garðabær) in Iceland spent their Christmas vacation along with their family in Orlando and participated in the intense PARS Junior Tournament.
The tournament took place December 28.- 30. 2013 and was held at Orange County National, a resort many Icelanders are familiar with, since the Icelandic National Golf Team for serveral years came to practice there.
GKG´s most promising were: Bragi Aðalsteinsson, Hlynur Bergsson and Kristófer Orri Þórðarson.
