Turkish Airlines, a global leader in civil aviation, brought its ever-growing World Golf Cup to the Dubai Creek & Yacht Club on March 27.
The airline, first in terms of country and international destinations, prides itself on its award-winning business class service and its commitment to the World Golf Cup, which has more than 8,000 invited guests competing in more than 100 tournaments worldwide.
Turkish Airlines is firmly committed to the aspirational vision of sporting competition, and trusts in its ability to unite people from different nations. The sports in question include football, basketball, rugby and golf at all levels.
This year’s tournament is backed by the Financial Times, The National, Titanic Hotels and clothing partner Ruck & Maul.
The winners of the qualifiers progress to the grand finals in Antalya, Turkey, in November. They will have the chance to secure a place in the Turkish Airlines Open pro-am, and will fly business class and stay at the five-star Titanic Golf Deluxe Hotel.
Abdul Moiz Khan will represent Dubai there after winning the competition with 43 points, while Marghoob Ali Khan was runner up and Baris Saysel was third.
The Nearest the Pin competition on the eighth hole for gentlemen and the 16th hole for ladies was won by Pankaj Kundra for the former and Satnam Kaur for the latter. Ashok Sindhu won the lowest gross score with 74. “We would like to thank all of our guests who made the Turkish Airlines World Golf Cup here in Dubai a huge success,” said Emre Ismailoglu, general manager of Turkish Airlines Dubai. “Once again, it was a fantastic tournament… and congratulations to our winner, Abdul Moiz Khan. We wish him the best of luck in Antalya.”
