Inaugural El Dorado Champions golf tourney tees off

The Lusignan Gold Club (LGC) and El Dorado Rums teed off their first ever El Dorado Champions golf invitational championships last Saturday afternoon.
A large number of Guyana’s best golfers, including 8-time Open Champ Avinash Persaud, together with Clifford Reis, Pandit Ravi, Mike Mangal, Joaan Deo and Christine Sukhram, took to the Greens.

Prior to Saturday’s midday tee off, El Dorado Rum Brand Manager Maria Munro said her company as happy to host their inaugural event with the LGC. She said El Dorado was happy to be part of such a big event, which was well attended.
Munro said she was in full support of golf, and hinted that the El Dorado brand was preparing to host at least three events per year, going forward.
LGC President, Aleem Hussain, prior to leading the official tee-off ceremony, said he was grateful to the company for its support of golf, and thanked the company for being a part of such a big invitational.
Hussain said he was looking to forge a stronger relationship with the El Dorado brand as golf prepares to enter its second half of the year in fine style. He added that more programmes, some of which will be targeting ladies and schools, will tee off in the near future.
El Dorado provided samplings of gin and 15-year-old Rum at a Happy Hour following the tournament. Food and hampers, compliments of the company, were also featured.
