  • Smbc Singapore Open Wins Top Award It Is the Best Tournament for 2017, While Sentosa’S Serapong Claims Best Course Honours
    BY GODFREY ROBERT SMBC SINGAPORE OPEN WINS TOP AWARD IT IS THE BEST TOURNAMENT FOR 2017, WHILE SENTOSA’S SERAPONG CLAIMS BEST COURSE HONOURS he SMBC Singapore Open beat 27 other Asian Tour events to be voted the Best Tournament of the Year 2017. The Singapore event came out tops in a voting exercise by more than 300 golfers who play in Asia, Europe, Africa and Australia. Although the prize-money for the event had dropped from a high of US$7 million to US$1 million, the Singapore Open, Tinaugurated in 1961, is a very popular tournament even among the world’s best players. Previous winners of the award include Ho Tram Cham- pionship in Vietnam and the Thailand Golf Championship in Thailand. Golfers such as Jordan Spieth, Phil Mickelson, Adam Scott, Angel Cabrera and Sergio Garcia have graced the Sin- gapore Open which has made Sentosa Golf Club’s world- acclaimed Serapong course its home since 2005. So it came as no surprise that at the Asian Tour’s annu- al awards gala night at the Royal Jakarta Golf Club on Dec 17, the Serapong layout was named the Best Course of the Year for 2017. Promoters Lagardere Sports’ vice president (Golf Asia) Patrick Feizal Joyce said: “Winning the tournament of the year on the Asian Tour is a terrific accolade and one we are extremely proud of. The acknowledgement from the DISCOVER GOLF CARNIVAL: Patrick Feizal Joyce, Vice President, players that our event is the one that sets the bar and an The Discover Golf Carnival on Jan 14 (from 2pm to 6pm) Golf — Asia, Lagardère Sports, receives the award from Cho Minn event they truly look forward to is tremendous validation at Sentosa Golf Club will feature various fun activities Thant (above, right), COO, Asian Tour.
