The ceremony also saw World Golf Awards welcome
Golf Saudi as Presenting Partner. With Saudi Arabia
quickly establishing itself as one of the world’s most
dynamic new golf markets, the new partnership
highlights the ambition of the Kingdom to become an
international golf destination.
Majed Al-Sorour, CEO, Golf Saudi, said: “World Golf
Awards is one of the game’s pre-eminent accolades
and represents core values that align closely with our
vision at Golf Saudi – excellence, global connectivity
and dedication. As Saudi Arabia’s golf development
programme gains momentum, greater integration
with the global golf community is allowing us to
build relations and develop pioneering initiatives
that will determine how we build the game in the
Kingdom.”
World Golf Awards serves to celebrate and reward
excellence in golf tourism, world-class courses and
golf destinations. The World Golf Awards 2019 will

future of this dynamic industry.

up standards within the golf tourism industry by
rewarding the organizations that are leaders in their
field.

the golf industry and by the public (golf tourism
consumers).
