In a blaze of glory, Iran's national women golf players take home the silver medal of an international golf tournament in Cyprus.

During a three-day world golfing event held in Cornelia in Northern Cyprus, Iranian golfers ranked second as Turkey won the coveted gold medal.

In the individual events, Iran's Nazanin Shahraki ranked third among the top scorers of the opening day and her teammate Leila Sarbazi was named the best scorer on the second day of the competitions.

15 countries from across the globe have participated in Cyprus' 9th international golf competitions, which was organized by Cyprus National Olympic Committee. The Iranian golfers competed with Turkey, Scotland, Cyprus, Lebanon and the UK.

With the tight regime and total lack of woman's rights in Iran there is no way I can see an Iranian woman on a golf course unless she is walking 10 paces behind her husband .
