Woods And McIlroy Live In Action In South East Asia

Having witnessed Lee Westwood claim the number one spot in the world golf rankings in last year’s Indonesian Masters, Indonesian golf fans most likely will have to wait quite a long time for other (former) number one golfers like Luke Donald, Tiger Woods or Rory McIlroy to come to Indonesia, if ever.

Although the aforementioned guys are not coming to Indonesia’s shores, at least they can be seen in action in our neighboring countries, Singapore and Malaysia. In the months to come, golfers and golf fans from Indonesia will be in a position to see the world’s best golfers live in action right on their doorstep, starting with former number one Tiger Woods at the Mines in KL during the CIMB Classic between October 25 and 28.

Two weeks later, from November 8 to 11, Rory McIlroy, the current number one in the world, will be playing in the Barclays Singapore Open. This 6 million US dollar event will take place at Sentosa Golf Club, and will send the winner home with a healthy check of exactly 1 million US dollars. Not bad for 4 days of labor. A total of 156 players will complete including 63 from the Asian Tour and 63 from the European Tour.

If you ever dreamed of seeing the world’s top golfers live in action, here’s your chance. Jot the dates down in your agenda.
