Tournament
Introduction
|
|
|
Mr. Sven Tumba established World Golfers
Championship (WGC) in 1995, and currently more than 30
countries are participating.
WGC gives the average golf amateur an opportunity to play in a
worldwide event and represent their country in a way similar
to what the professionals do in The Ryder Cup, President’s Cup
and The Solheim Cup.
By playing in different flight levels, everybody competes on
an equal and fair level against players of their own caliber.
Every country starts with qualification tournaments on local
or regional levels leading into a National Final, where the 5
winners will be crowned to be the representatives of their
respective country. What other sport will give the average
competitor an opportunity to represent their country like
this?
Beginning with a flag parade of all participating countries,
you will feel like you are part of an Olympic event. At the
end there will be Five Individual World Golfers Champions as
well as the prestigious World Golfers Championship Team
award.
You can be part of this! Contact your local club and ask if
they are hosting a qualification event. If not, check our
website for the nearest participating club.

World Golfers Championship
recognizes five winners. One in each flight and all
of them has the same possibility to be on the National
Team and become World Champions.
|
This will excite more players and make
your event better attended at all levels.
In addition, World Golfers Championship can
be used as an incentive to attract more members to your
club, since this opportunity will not be available at all
country clubs.

The Event:
The World Golfers Championship
is being held annually, normally in the end or middle of
November. In the past years the tournaments have been held in
Dominican Republic, Thailand, Turkey and South Africa. In 2007
the World Finals was held in Malaysia, and in 2008 the World
Finals will take place in Florida. Currently
approximately 25 – 30 countries are involved, and it all
starts with local and regional qualification tournaments,
followed by National Finals to create the five person team
that will then represent their country. This is a unique
opportunity for most people, normally only available to the
world’s elite.
The World Final is a weeklong event. Two
practice rounds followed by four competitive rounds. At the
end, there will be team champions, as well as individual
champions.
The National Finals will be held
approximately one month prior to the World Finals.
