Free entry to SA Open
2008-12-11
FROM 18 to 21 December Pearl Valley Golf Estate will once again host the prestige South African Open Championship. This year the SA Open has assembled the strongest ever team to do battle for the coveted title, with South Africa’s top golfers, Ernie Els, Retief Goosen, Trevor Immelman and Rory Sabbatini leading the local charge. South Africa’s hopes will rely heavily on the above-mentioned golfers to compete in the last thirty six holes over the weekend, as only sixty five players will qualify. As if the competition’s free entry is not enough of a treat for the record crowd expected to attend this year’s event, spectators will also get to rub shoulders with top international golfers like Henrik Stenson, Rory Mcilroy, and Lee Westwood. “Free entry, one of the greatest fields ever seen in the southern hemisphere, and the strongest possible South African challenge, means that we are expecting a record crowd,” says David Spencer, CEO-Golf of Leisurecorp. “Els, Goosen, Rose, Westwood, all the big guns are here and when you throw Sabbatini into the mix, who has incredibly never played in the South African Open before, you have the recipe for a thrilling four days of golf.” Admission to the South African Open will be free for anyone who pre-register for tickets at www.southafricanopen.com.
