“Three winners – Men Best Gross 1 and 2 and winner from Ladies flight - will be rewarded with an all-expenses paid trip to the World Final, to be held at the Sentosa Golf Club in Singapore from 5 – 10 March, 2012,” added Mr. Divyanathan. The BMW Golf Cup International World Final will feature Colin "Monty" Montgomerie as the star guest for the golf clinic and the gala night to present prizes for the winners.
