Wilfred van Est again Dutch champion in the masters class!
The competition
Open Dutch Highland Games Championships 2017 - Masters
1. Wilfred van Est (Netherlands)
2. Wim Vandenbroucke (Belgium)
3. Bert Bos (Belgium)
4. Kornelis Smit (Netherlands)
5. Johan Peperkamp (Netherlands)
6. Dirk van 't Zelfden (Netherlands)
7. Wybe Zeilstra (Netherlands)
8. Robert Katzenbeisser (Austria)
9. Mark Zimmerman (Germany)
This year no dramatic climax in declaring the winner of the Dutch master class. Outstanding Wilfred van Est improved this year again and even won the overall amateur class.
Belgian athletes Wim Vandenbroucke and Bert Bos battled for silver and bronze. Former champion Wybe Zeilstra concentrated more on international events and therefore missed too many events to gain points.
In the pro class there were three athletes:
1. Hans Lolkema (Netherlands)
2. Tommy de Bruijn (Belgium)
3. Andy Deuschle (Germany)
