On Sunday, September 20, 2026, Margit Jungmann handed over the award: “2025 WMA Best Male Masters of the Year” to Cees Stolwijk, during the national final of the masters competition in Leiden (Netherlands).
Cees was supposed to receive the award in Daegu, but he could not attend, so the award was presented in the Netherlands instead.
Margit came to Leiden specifically to hand it over to Cees; he thought it was amazing.
