Full steam ahead for the Asian Tour in 2017
It has been a busy and rewarding year for the Asian Tour in 2017 thus far and my team and I have embraced the challenges to sustain what we have seen as positive growth in the last few months. Our talented players and staff members are truly excited with the recent announcement that we will return to China after an eight-year hiatus.
We are now working extremely hard to stamp our return by staging Asian Tour events along with our partners, the China Golf Association, in the Middle Kingdom once again. Hopefully I will be able to share more details with all of you in my next column, so stay tuned.
I’m delighted to reveal that we are on the verge of announcing a new Tour Partner. It will be a very exciting partnership which will enhance the earning opportunities of our membership which is one of our key objectives as an organisation.
