Ninety golfers to feature at Brava Guyana Open tournament
The Lusignan Golf Club (LGC) would again be partnering with Brava to host the Brava Guyana Open golf tournament 2024. This two-day event is set for rollout on November 2nd and 3rd, and there is every expectation the tourney would be filled with passionate fans and supporters.
More than 90 athletes from Canada, the USA, Trinidad and Tobago, Suriname and Barbados would be participating in this tournament, and they would be placed in different flights, lower handicappers being 0–9 years old, middle class being 10–18 years old, and 19-28 years old being Premium.
President of Lusignan Sports Club, Anasha Ally, emphasising the significant impact of these investments made by sponsors and the expectations of the tournament, has said, “I would just like to say, on behalf of the Guyana Lusignan Club Committee, members and non-members, all players, that we are so happy to be part of this engagement for the Brava Guyana Open golf tournament 2024. I know that GT&T has always been, and has always had a long association with the Guyana Open, and so we are so happy that Brava has come on board with us for this occasion. We are expecting over forty players from as far as North America, Canada and United States, and our Caribbean neighbours. So, that number, added to our Guyanese players and of course the X-Factor in Guyana, which is growing, makes it a very (good) competition ahead.”
Also speaking at the launch ceremony was Brava General Manager Hilton Wong, who divulged on their dedication towards their investment in sports when he said, “This is an example of our commitment and dedication towards the development of golf. Golf in our country is a pillar of national pride, and we continue to celebrate wins as a feeling of accomplishment at Brava, as we are committed towards the development of (the sport) locally, and we have demonstrated that dedication through similar contributions across several sport disciplines.”
Prizes would be given to winners of the following categories: the longest drive, nearest to the pin, best gross and best net, which is the champion.
