The annual TCA-organised golf championship has been billed, for the second year running, as the region’s best professional sporting event at the Middle East Sports Industry Awards. The event tees off every January at Abu Dhabi Golf Club welcoming one of the European Tour’s leading player fields who vie for the iconic Falcon Trophy and a cut of the $2.7million prize purse.
The awards are voted for by a panel of industry professionals and organised by the daily newspaper Sport 360 with independent auditing by Deloitte. The Championship was also recognised with a silver award for ‘Best Sports Marketing Campaign’ while HSBC took a silver award celebrating its world-class contribution as Championship title sponsor.
