Turkey and Azerbaijan shone over the rest of nations at Dutch Open 2017 after collecting no less than 5 gold medals each last weekend in Eindhoven. Great Britain was the other country to clinch more than 1 title with 2 in total, while Italy, Serbia, Japan and Thailang grabbed 1 gold each to complete the 16 Senior divisions in competition.
