HSBC is certainly on the right track with impressive golf events like the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship and worldwide influence on junior golf programs.
EGF Secretary General, Khalid Mubarak Al Shamsi had this to say about the 2017 UAE Presidents Cup. “It is always great to work with HSBC and their knowledgeable events management staff. The 2017 UAE Presidents Cup is shaping up to be a great event. We have secured a full field of 78 players with many of young nationals looking to have their names inscribed on the coveted President’s Cup trophy”.
Looking to defend his title from last year Rashid Hamood said, “To play in this event is always a privilege. Many of the UAE Nationals look forward to this event so that we can showcase our talent. Working at the Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club I understand the amount of time and organization that goes into a major event like this, we all are very thankful to both the EGF and HSBC for their hard work on this event”.
