Varenhorst has a new partner

Dutch veteran Christiaan Varenhorst was in the hunt for a new partner since he split with Jasper Bouter last year. And it seems he found one as the giant blocker is entered to play at the World Tour four-star event in Doha, in March, with 24-year-old Steven van de Velde.
