More than 200 golfers from Australia, New Zealand and Fiji are taking part in the 10th Sheraton Golf Classic Tournament at the Sheraton Fiji Golf and Beach Resort after a lapse of two years.
The Managing Director of Pacific Golf Management, Richard Ellis says this year’s event is a sell out and about 80 percent of players that participated in previous years are back again this year.
He says the event in Fiji is always a draw-card where they have the likes of Glen Joyner who won in the US on the Seniors Tour last week will also be tournament.
Multi-Property Vice President for Marriott International Fiji & Samoa and General Manager Sheraton & Westin Resorts, Fiji Complex, Neeraj Chadha says niche events such as golf targets an affluent segment in key source markets of Australia and New Zealand.
He says the visitor economy is stimulated with events such as these and it is wonderful to see many players back on the Championship Golf Course.
The tournament ends this Saturday.
