"Somehow it was unbelievable - not only for myself. My series of success started when I was 17. I competed for my first International German Youth Champion Award in 2005 in Laser Radial. This was followed by the Junior European Championship bronze medal (U19) in 2006, two gold medals at the Junior-European Championship (U19 and U21) in 2007, a win in Hyeres at the Traditional European Laser Cup in 2008, another Junior-European Champion award in 2009, and in 2010 I won the Intl. German Championship for the fourth time, as well as the European Champion award in 2012." © Philipp Buhl, www.philipp-buhl.de
