“Our clubhouse just opened and we’re fast approaching our first birthday,” said Howie Roberts, Danang GC’s general manager. “What better way to celebrate than with a tournament for all the people — members, their guests, and even non-members — who have supported us since last May, when play started on the Dunes Course?”

Designed in the true spirit of the game by former world No. 1 golfer Greg Norman, the rugged and rolling Dunes Course has already been called “jaw-dropping” by HK Golfer magazine and “as close as you’ll ever come (in Asia) to the UK’s great links courses” by Golf Digest Singapore.

In December, the US edition of GOLF Magazine — the most prestigious golf publication in the world — voted Danang GC one of the top 15 courses to open worldwide in 2010.

“For many players, the club championship represents the first opportunity to experience for themselves what the international golf press has been raving about,” said Roberts. “It’s going to be fun to watch them and talk to them and put on a fantastic tournament for them.”

More than 100 golfers are expected to compete across four stroke-play divisions in the Inaugural DGC Club Championship, which also serves as a qualifier for the prestigious MercedesTrophy Vietnam Final.

On both days, play begins with a shotgun start at 7 a.m. The event concludes with an awards ceremony Sunday afternoon.
