An english version of his report will be published soon.


Greetinx from cloudy Germany,

Ingo Zachos


P.S:
Note how close Michele is watching the game between Michael and Roberto.
As if he knew he had to beat Michael twice in the last round.

Here are some pictures of the Irish Open QT which Kim took or someone she knew. They downloaded them to
SkyDrive. I download the images so you can view them indefinitely from NC website under the 2010 Irish event. You don't have to worry about SkyDrive deleting the files after 06/02/2011. This was setup to share thru Windows.
