Norge i Swedish Open 2018
I morgen er det klart for den 7. utgaven av Swedish Open. Turneringen avholdes annenhvert år, som et sammenarbeid med Danish Open som går motsatt år. Norge har de siste år vært fast innventar i Swedish – og det skulle bare mangle når man ser hvordan svenske utøvere i en årrekke har støtte norske arrangement. Vi tar en liten kikk på de norske utøvere og litt på årets turnering.
Swedish Open avholdes i Göteborg, og er den mest proffesjonelle turneringen i nærheten av Norge.
Dimitar Trampov, Bulgaria
Fighting for over thirty year, and fighting among the top level for so long – that alone will put Trampov in a “division” for himself. Being on the European podium more or less in a ten year period, facing the absolute best – well that has been written before, but still going strong thirty year after? To be capable of doing so, one do realize that this is beyond the ordinary. Technique, understanding, and a true spirit. Making a strong figure in World Championships, being the oldest competitor in 2015 – passes his 4th Dan test few days after.
Swedish Open 2018 – Last call!
Closing in to the last part of the registration, Swedish Open shapes nicely up.
