PETALING JAYA, Feb 26 — Having hosted household names like Lee Westwood and Louis Oosthuizen, the Bandar Malaysia Open 2020 is back after a four-year hiatus.
Previously called the Malaysian Open, the prestigious golf championship, set to be held at the Kota Permai Golf & Country Club (KPGCC) in Shah Alam, is less than two weeks away.
KPGCC last hosted the Malaysian Open 12 years ago in 2008 and will welcome a host of Asian and local talents to its lush greens from March 5 to 8 to battle it out in this year’s tournament
Excited to have the championship back after four years, the event promoter, Winning Matters’ chief executive officer Arep Kulal said he hoped Malaysians would enjoy the championship.
“It certainly feels great to have our national open back on the regional golfing calendar, where it rightly belongs,” said Arep in a press release.
“We hope Malaysians in general, and local golf fans specifically, will come out in full force to Kota Permai to cheer on the players and support our local challengers in the Bandar Malaysian Open 2020.
“And we hope everyone will have an enjoyable week with the facilities that we have prepared for this championship.”
He added that there would be a host of talent on display at KPGCC during the championships with a number of top talents from up north and around Asia taking part.
“This year, we will have top players from the Asian Tour and Japan Golf Tour Organisation (JGTO), competing against 40 Malaysian challengers for the top honours,” said Arep.
The Bandar Malaysia Open 2020 has also teamed up with Malay Mail which will act as online media partner for the championship.
