In the first ECT-tournament of 2016 Sebastian excelled and finished with his first ECT victory.

With a solid 67 (-5) he finished the first round at 3rd place. The second day brought us a 68 from Sebastian, now at 2nd place.

Starting from second place there was not so fare to move on the moving day but with another 68 Sebastian took that last step into a 3 stroke lead after round three…

Trying to defend a three stroke lead is ”lot of pressaure” but Sebastian made it all the way and with a finishing 67 he became the new King of Kenya, recieving the Winners Trophy from the President of Kenya, Uhuru Kenyatta

With the win Sebastian climbed 161 steps on the World Golf Ranking, now 257, which ranks him number 10 of the Swedes.
