Phoenix open golf tourney registration formally opens

THE PHOENIX Petroleum opened the registration for the 11th Phoenix Open Golf Tournament set on March 16, 2019 at the Rancho Palos Verdes Golf and Country Club.

The said tournament eyes 220 registrants for the 18 hole, Stableford, Team, Partner, and Individual categories open to all male and female amateur golfers 26 years old and above.

“We try to contain the number of players because we have so many activities during the game and also, our aim is for the golfers to have fun not be pressure on the game,” said Liloh Evangelista, tournament organizer, during the press conference yesterday at Go Hotels Lanang.

In the previous year, there were more than 250 golfers who attended the same event and although there were no untoward incidents, the organizers deemed to reduce this year’s participants to ensure more fun.

The registration fee is at P7,500. Each player is entitled to a maximum of one team and one partner only.

Registration is at Rancho Palos Verdes Golf and Country Club and at Phoenix Mega Station in Lanang.

Winners for the hole-inone may win P1 million, a Harley-Division 2019 Sporster Iron 883, two Tata Manza Petrol Cars, and P100,000 worth of Phoenix Petroleum fuels and lubricants.

Meanwhile, the team, partner, and individual category winners shall receive Royal Selangor pewter plates and Phoenix Petroleum fuel/ lube gift certificates.

All proceeds of the tournament will go to the Phoenix Philippines Foundation, including 30 of its adopted schools nationwide, as well as environment projects such as build-a-reef, tree growing activities, and disaster relief programs.
